I love the people in my life who accept me for who I am.

*** EMO ALERT***
 
 
'To be nobody but yourself in a world that's doing its best to make you somebody else, is to fight the hardest battle you are ever going to fight. Never stop fighting.' EE Cummings.
 
 
I'm fed up with people thinking I should change. Be quieter. More refined. Go out and party more. Go out and party less. Be thinner. More confident. Less confident. Stop changing my hair colour. Be more ambitious. Stop being Ambitious, be content with now. 
 I've spent years trying to accept myself, who are you to say I should change? 
 I love the people in my life who accept me for who I am. Insecure, mildly flamboyant dresser, hair and accent chameleon, excitable with a good measure of decorum.

5 ways I don't fit in.

1. I talk to animals. With farm animals I occasionaly try to warn them of their impending doom, but perhaps I should let ignorance be bliss.

2. I hate wearing shoes.And not just after 2am and 2many glasses of rose Trips 2 sainsburys, in the office.....beee free my feet.

3. I'll always choose to sit on the floor over a chair. Closer to the rats.

4. I think 'Who are you?' is an acceptable way to greet people

5. I don't care if people don't like the way I look, as long as I do:
I liked my peroxide blonde that looked about as natural as a manatee on the high street.

And I don't mind being a dark shade of orange. I feel exotic.

What I love most about Leeds.....



...The wide selection of buskers: bollywood-style guitar player, guy doing chris brown impersonations, guy playing the drums on trash, middle eastern trumpet quartet, and the man with the singing dog. something for everyone.
Apparently Leeds is the only place in UK where you do not need a liscense to busk. Shrug.







Oh and Madge from neighbours, Chris Moyles and The Kasier Chiefs can be spotted (I served a Kaiser Chief at work once. Dunno which one)
