We make up horrors to help us cope with the real ones.

We are what we pretend to be.

You know when I applied to be in this school of posers, as bad of an egg that I am.. I applied to be here! I may mess up, mess around but I *want* to be here. I will be damned if you or any of your plastic doll friends are going to take that from me.
