Angilina Ballerina

i only want to be this girl.

About Me

* i am not a dancing mouse, though the name appears to have stuck * i like the kind of teas that have never seen milk * i love charity shop rummaging and trudging down the towpath * i cut my own hair and leave it on the bathroom floor * i dream of tube maps and underground railways * i forget single shoes at parties and still limp home with a smile on my face * molly is the wisest person i know, if only she could talk * i like gold shoes from oxfam and shelves full of bags and if you were a biscuit what type would you be * i was lost but then i found where i was supposed to be going all along. i just had the map upside down * i am a student nurse. i love every minute, despite the clothing it involves * my friends are the glue that hold me together. they're my back copies of smash hits, my 1980s neighbours references, my cherry bakewells and my heels-on-hand-holding and everything in between * i like dancing like it's the very last song * i thrive on in jokes and the BBA campaign * i don't understand people who don't get excited about music. i don't ever want to. life is nothing without passion. for something. anything * my life is held together with safety pins and silver star shaped stickers * i think in soundtracks on bus journeys * we love the boardgames, all of them. it's a trivial pursuit but we still shout * a girl just can't go to sing sing with a green face *
