Author has written 32 stories for Romance, Humor, Humor, Life, Friendship, General, and Love. I’m fifteen, female, and I act either older or under my age depending on who you ask, and my sugar level at the time. I stare off into space at school, and occasionally insert a languid arm into the air to make a brainless comment. I daydream constantly and try staving off my math homework as long as possible. Scribbled lines of poetry on crumpled pieces of scrap paper reveal a mind that is easily distracted and hopelessly disorganized. Oh well - "I can make words blossom on a page, conjure butterflies out of ink; blue skies shimmer in the wake of my pen." And frankly, I guess that's quite enough. ~April 9, 2007 Eat lots of chocolate. It's good for you. | |||||||
