Catherine

My name is Catherine. I am 16 years old and I'm almost through with my junior year of high school. I have a lot of plans and aspirations for my life, mainly because it makes me feel better to have some sort of plan, even if I don't adhere to it, than to not know exactly where I'm going.
Well, that may not be entirely true. Sometimes I like being spontaneous.
There's probably a ton I could say, but there's really only one thing you need to know about me if you ever want to get to know me any better.
I am a genuine person.
It doesn't mean I have a happy ending because I get to be myself, or anything outrageous like that. In fact, it gets me in trouble maybe more than it helps me. Ever since I was a kid, I've disliked playing mind games with people, despite my father's urging that you need to suck up sometimes to get ahead in, for example, the corporate world. I know this is true, and it's the main reason I decided I won't be doing anything in the realm of law or politics because I'd rather just be myself than screw people whom I care about over to get ahead. It may be useful to be well-liked in some situations, but to me it isn't worth knowing my friends like me because of some pretend world I invited them into. I recognize that some people won't like for whatever reason, but I feel better about my life upon going to sleep at night because I know I am for real, and I got where I am by being myself. And, strangely enough, this puts me at ease.
I will bring a mirror, so silver, so exact
So precise and so pristine, a perfect pane of glass
I will set the mirror up, to face the blackened sky
You will see your beauty every moment that you rise
