about me

The quick facts:
  • My name is Tess. I like my name.
  • My favorite color is blue.
  • I read too much.
  • My family is crazy.
  • My school is pretty.
  • You're not getting my personal email address or my class schedule. Sorry.
And the detailed facts...
  • It might seem like I take myself very seriously. I promise you, I don't. I believe taking yourself too seriously leads to anixety attacks--which, in my experience, can only be cured with quality music and chicken nuggets.
  • Yes, I am in high school. Yes, I am a teenager. No, I am not depressed slash emo slash emotionally unstable, and I am well aware I do not, by any means, live in a wasteland. In case you've managed to evade radios and music your entire life (and if you have, I am not jealous of you), I have borrowed lyrics from the Who's song as a title. Don't cry, don't raise your eyes, it's only teenage wasteland. Personally, I think the "wasteland" is the crazy in-between years of not being fully understood. I feel misunderstood about 80% of the time. Hence, the title.
  • I live for music, fresh notebooks, hugs, thunderstorms, pajama pants and laughter. It sounds terribly cliche, but I honestly could not function without these.
  • I detest strawberries, the Twilight Saga, liars, the color pink and most shows on Disney Channel.
  • I have extrodinary, fabulous, crazy, loving and loyal friends, whom I actually consider to be my brothers and sisters.
  • I am a nerd at heart--I love Harry Potter, use correct grammar (mostly), devour books, do all of my homework even when it causes sleep deprivation, edit essays, use nerd words in casual conversation and I adore my English class. I am not, however, antisocial--I probably talk too much and I've recently thrown my inhibitions out the window and now just constantly embaress myself wherever, whenever.
  • My life is pretty mundane, but I love it anyways.
...Wow, you read this far? Thank you. Now go eat some chicken nuggets.
