Contradiction
I am the kind of person who completely understands why Jack traded Milky White away for magic beans.
I am an Addict sports player and an IB nerd, as strange as that seems.
I am a book cherisher,
World traveler,
Passive crusher,
Forgone dreamer,
Adventurer,
And anime obsessor all in the same breath.
I love the idea of being in love.
I don’t fear death.
I am that girl who sits in the library and cries over the book she is reading while others look on as if she is crazy.
I have scuba dived the Egyptian Red Sea.
And recently, I’ve developed a love of scalding tea.
I am a prideful,
Pessimistic,
Optimistic,
Realistic,
Uncompromising,
Unyielding,
Easygoing fool.
I am just plain foolish.
I dabble in the art of occasional cussing.
I have zero tolerance for people’s fussing.
My favorite weather is rain.
I have lost faith in humanity and regained it again,
Without fully understanding what triggered the change.
I am a middle child.
A little anti-social.
I listen to Disney songs, and musicals and classic rock and trance.
I fancy myself as self aware, yet still am completely swept up by my emotions and smashed into the ground.
I am a contradiction that makes utter and complete sense,
As counterintuitive as that sounds.
