It took a long time to decide which photos to use for this – probably way too long. I find it difficult to describe myself without using just words, but here it goes. The first photos I was sure I was going to pick were the instrument photos – a photo of a guitar, and a photo of a piano. I’ve been playing both instruments since a very young age, and even though I’m not exceptional at either of them, it’s my favorite hobby. My love for music eventually turned into a love for songwriting, and eventually, novel writing, which is why I added a photo of a pen and paper. I often write novels just for fun. Sometimes, I include characters slightly based off of real people that either fascinated me or annoyed me. Essentially, I’m the Taylor Swift of novel writing. I also chose a photo of my favorite Broadway theater, the Circle in the Square. I saw one of my first Broadway shows there and I love it to pieces. I think it is absolutely gorgeous, and I could probably live in there. To go with my love of Broadway, I included a photo I took of the city from a ferry ride. New York City isn’t as amazing as everyone says – it’s mostly just a crowded place that reeks of hot garbage and urine, but it’s my crowded place that reeks of hot garbage and urine. I don’t think I could live anywhere else. I also added a photo of a green wristband that you will definitely see me wearing on a daily basis. I have worn it almost everyday since age fifteen. It reads, “This star won’t go out,” which is the name of a charity that helps families of children struggling with pediatric cancer. It was originally founded by the family of Esther Earl, a teen that passed from cancer, and it is a cause that is extremely close to my heart. Lastly, I added a photo of my dog, because I’m a total dog person and I like my dog more than most people. I will willingly argue with anyone that says pit bulls are vicious.

Upon looking over these photos, I think a sentence that perfectly describes me is, “Odd music-loving dog lady,” and I am perfectly okay with that.
