the girl
amanda but never mandy. twenty-one. high school senior valedictorian of the class of 2009 ♥. shy. clumsy. awkward. loner. dreamer. perfectionist. libra. ravenclaw (with a teensy, weensy bit of slytherin-y tendencies at times *le shrug*). hopeless romantic. speaks fluent sarcasm. proud bookworm. nutella, magazines, make-up and k-pop forever on repeat, these are just a few of my favorite things. frequently falls head over heels in lust love with fictional characters. loves foreign, indie, & period films best. can't function without music. writing is my passion but is also interested in film and pyschology too. cailfornia girl unfortunately (though my brown hair and pale skin would suggest otherwise if you're into stereotyping), but hopes to one day call london, england my home. audrey hepburn is and will always be my queen and idol (leighton meester & iu being close runners up though). lives for those cold, rainy (perfect) days. becomes a tad bit too obsessed with my fandoms. rant extraordinaire. a strong first impressionist, despite the moral of the story of my favorite book pride & prejudice. currently searching for direction in my overly boring life.
