19.

first of all, because i like this:


"We sat and made a list of all the things that we had down the backs of table tops;
ticket stubs and your diaries.

I read them all one day when loneliness came and you were away.
Oh they told me nothing new,

But I love to read the words you used."


now:

today is my last teenage day. which i want to praise the heavens for because even though my never ending acne will keep me looking pubescent until the day i die, i hate admitting that i am in fact an age with teen at the end. but a part of me is a little sad, because i have no longer have an excuse for my childish behavior. hahahahaha.
and that ugly "teen" suffix does ward off some creepers. some.
one of "my" students was like, "you can drink in a year!" i threw my head back at that.

ANYWHAY.
here's a photo overload of just me.
