About melabird
If you were to throw up your hands in exasperation and yell "it's the story of my life," what would you be talking about?
indecision.
In bed I like to read:
something comforting. like harry potter. or the little prince.
My favorite story of all time is:
North & South by Elizabeth Gaskell
Right now, I'm reading:
This Side of Paradise by F. Scott Fitzgerald
