…only to have my grandmother come into my room this morning and launch into a tirade about me. Key points in her speech were:
I’m lazy
I’m inconsiderate
I don’t contribute
I’m selfish
I’m wasting my life because I don’t have a job yet (I tried to get one, but because I was meant to be going away twice - and only ended up going away once - no one would...

Every so often, I get bored with my clothes. I dress well, but fairly plainly, and I always think about how interesting it would be to take one of my friends out into the city and basically play stylist for each other, just to get a different idea on what to wear. Since I’ll now be here for all of summer, I do need new clothes after all…

Which Jane Austen Character Are You? →
33-41 points: Elinor Dashwood (SENSE AND SENSIBILITY)
No one has more self-control than Elinor Dashwood. She keeps her love for Edward Ferrars under wraps while she knows he is not free to be hers.

boundto-fall asked: Maybe when I'm a little older, but I kind of like having my hair long at the moment. It does get really boring at times and I really want more fun and interesting hairstyles. But I like having hair I can rely on and not have to worry about at the same time! Seriously, like for example, I left home today without washing or brushing my hair this morning, and I still get so many compliments...
