things that make me sad sometimes if i think too much
- i’m not a mermaid. i’ll never be a mermaid no matter how hard i try.
- i was never a child star. after i saw cheaper by the dozen i cried myself to sleep for a week because i was so jealous of all the fun they must have had making the movie.
- i don’t work at disney. i need to work at disney. i just want the costume and the fame and the magic.
- i’m not a real princess. i want to live in a castle and have gold everything and sparkly shoes and a garden better than versailles.
- i’m still in college and not in the real world. i need to graduate already so i can start real life and not have school on the front burner all the time. i want to have a real job and disposable income and i want to go on cheap trips to anywhere i can think of. i want maps stuffing my glove compartment to capacity with circled cities and wishes for adventure.
- i don’t have an accent and unless i fake it until i make it (which would be awful and annoying and obviously unauthentic) i never will.
- i don’t live on an island and i don’t have 24/7 access to water/the beach.
it all makes me sad but happy and hopeful at the same time. even though the mermaid thing will (most likely) never happen, i know the rest are all possible. okay, maybe not the child star thing either, but a girl can dream, right?
