Read more: We are the girl…We are the girls with anxiety disorders, filled appointment books, five-year plans. We take ourselves very, very seriously. We are the peacemakers, the do-gooders, the givers, the savers. We are on time, overly prepared, well read, and witty, intellectually curious, always moving…We pride ourselves on getting as little sleep as possible and thrive on self-deprivation.…

Idiosyncrasies…
Read more: Idiosyncrasies…I love the word ‘idiosyncrasy’.

Read more: Photo DiaryGosh it’s been a long long time… So sorry for the lapse in posts…ironically I failed to post anything at all while I’ve had all the time in the world while on vacation.
