I am Addie.

 

I have over 50 trophies for dance but not the one that I really want.

 

I have seven siblings but sometimes feel alone.

 

I hate teenage angst and think the last line reeks of angst.

 

I love Grey’s Anatomy and 30 Rock.

 

I am an avid historian who looks to change the future by studying the past.

 

I’ve talked about college more minutes than I might actually be there.

 

I am a caring sister and can fight like a champ.

 

My mom is my biggest supporter and the person who I become most easily angered with.

 

I am compassionate, loyal, funny, and sarcastic.

 

I think the Oxford comma is the only thing that keeps this world from falling into chaos.

 

I don’t like the idea of eating meat but my favorite food is steak.

 

I am a nail biter who says I’m going to stop at least once a month.

 

I am a feminist and like the door held open for me.

 

I have a 19 pound cat that I hate has to lose weight.

 

I dance when EVERYONE is watching.

 

I am a champion for civil rights and believe that I can make a difference.

 

I am committed to service and helping others.

 

I have lived 16 short years and can’t wait for the rest.
