Hey, people. All you need to know about me, I guess, is that I'm 18, female, a college freshman, and I love theatre (especially MUSICAL theatre), music, drums, reading, etc. This account is basically just here so I can post the poems I write when I need to vent. Most of them are a bit emo, but I hope you all like them anyway! And if not...oh well :-P
