She daydreams a lot, and loves laughing so hard with someone that she can’t stop, this happens more than you would think. Often the things she is laughing about are not even that funny. There is a girl who believes that anything is always more fun when she is with a friend. She is grateful for the life she has, but often feels bad that some people in this world aren’t so lucky.

There is a girl who will wait for her favorite song on the radio, and dance with her sister for the 2-3 minutes that it plays, singing her heart out. Time seemed to stop in those minutes. The blissfully happy minutes while she are singing and dancing. She has found, at the time you don’t realize how precious they are.

This girl is me.
I am the girl who probably gets hurt way too easily, worries about comments and things that don’t really matter. But then I stick by my opinion, and state it anyway. I am the girl who will write a to-do list just to end up not even looking at it. I will sometimes be so caught up in thought, that I will completely forget where I am and what I am doing. I am the kind of person that makes my dog a birthday cake, and then will sing happy birthday to him, and laugh as he looks so confused. I am the girl that talks too loud while telling stories to my family, and I am told to quiet down, because I am so excited. I am the person who freaks out about pop quizzes and then fails it since I didn’t plan it into my day. I am the kind of person who craves human contact, and quickly gets tired of being alone.
This is who I am, and I wouldn’t change it for the world.
