Dear World,
Nice try. But I see right through your game. I'm not a cookie cutter shape. I am me. I can't force myself to be as skinny as other girls. I can't force my hair to be "perfectly" messy. I can't force myself to go into a music major like ALL my friends from high school. I can't force myself make a CD like everyone I know because I can't write very good songs. I can't force myself to like partying like every other college student. I can't force myself to be who you want me to be.
And that's okay.
I don't need to be anything other than what I am. I don't need to do anything because it's "expected". I don't need to put on a mask that leaves me feeling like you don't even know me. I'm not any of those things. I am the unexpected. I am what makes life a little less boring.
Would it be okay if I didn't live up to your expectations, World?
There's no other option...I can't.
Sincerely,
The Authentic Kristin Olsen
