"I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious." -Albert Einstein


My shadow is friends with everyone. She doesn’t have a group, she migrates and lights up the room with her presence. She isn’t intorverted and she goes out whenever she wants.
On the honor roll, and takes the coveted place of honored to have you at my party, she uses her bright personality and her dark brown hair to wow the crowd and takes the place opposite of the wallflower.
She wears clothes that are classy yet seductive and with one flounce of her hair she makes the boys swoon.
She is every parents dream. She balances social life with sports and school, and an A- just wont cut it for her.
Hoping to make the best out of a situation she is never snarky or sarcastic and she confronts the situation head on.
No one dislikes her. She fits in with everyone and despises no one.
Trying to impress everybody she cares about every detail in her life.
Her motto in life is, “If you have the cake you might as well be able to eat it too!”
She tries, and tries, and tries, and never fails.
She uses her height and body to her advantage is will never be seen falling about, or showing the clumsy side that comes out when she is at home.
She is always so emotional. She’ll cry for people she doesn’t know, in front of them no less. She doesn’t understand why people can’t be more like her.
She hasn’t yet realized that her life is based around social norms and conformity to “the man”. Round and round she goes, following the same cycle she completed the day before.
Never will she attempt to be different, but never will she not be okay with that.
