No a single drop of boy in me. It's actually quite intense, being 2000% girl. But I LOVE IT, and am so happy to feel so comfortable with myself. That said, I am also a business student and I love confusing the lecturers and male students. They take one look at me, think I'm a girly pushover student whos only going to business school becasue daddy wants her to find a good, sensible man. And then I open my mouth. And their perceptions come crashing down. And then I make sure I get better marks than them - they get so lost in gender stereotypes, it's funny!!! (so maybe my competativeness is masculine? maybe i do have some boy in me? ) I am 2000% girl. No a single drop of boy in me. It’s actually quite intense, being 2000% girl.

I also skip or dance more often than I walk and giggle like a schoolgirl at any mention of Zachary Quinto. Not to sound like a braggart, but I also kick ass. That being said, I've never believed that femininity and asskickery were mutually exclusive, so make of that what you will.

I LOVE getting dressed and ready for the day, or getting all dolled up. I find any excuse to get dressed, going to the grocery store, stoping at the gas station. Lately no occasion is too small for me to look my best. I fawn over cute shoes, spend way more than I should on makeup, and giggle like a school girl. At the same time though I am tough. I jump into mosh pits and can fight like the best of the guys. I guess I may be girlie, but im certainly no damsel in distress. I fear I have become incredibly girlie in the past year.

It was around the age of 12 that I began noticing the difference between boys and girls; I was pretty much a tomboy from the very start, or as early as I can remember. I was always the odd one, the weird one, just because the majority of my friends were boys, and I didn't wear girly clothes. I talked like a boy and acted like one, therefore everyone treated me like one. So it was a big surprise when I started to wear more girly clothes and speaking in a not so vulgar manner (at least when adults were around!). It's true that people judge a book by it's cover, and that if they don't like the cover, they don't even want to see what's in the inside, so I conformed the outside to what people wanted to see; a pretty girl, wearing pretty clothes, just so I could 'fit in', but I digress. The question at hand is very simple, yet very complicated; I think people should be who they are. Feel comfortable in their own skin, and not to conform to the views of other people just to please them. <b>I am who I am because I don't want to lie to myself or to the people around me. I am a girl, and proud of it! Even if I wear sweats and band t-shirts on the weekend.</b> ♥♥(o￫ܫ￩o)♫ ♥♥(o￫ܫ￩o)♫ ♥♥(o￫ܫ￩o)♫ ヾ（ ❀◕◡◕ฺฺ ）ノ【*Η*Ε*Ļ*О*О*】ヽ（◕◡◕❀ฺ ）ノ\\
