Every day I miss Cape Breton… so badly. Makes me want to cry almost. I can only see the stars in the commons at night and well it’s just not very safe for a little blond girl to lay in the commons at night. But in Cape Breton, BAM every night. I can also see the ocean, and trees… TREES not man made trees in man made parks. Real honest to god trees. I also have outdoor cats. It’s nice. —Cape Breton Girl

dye your hair brown. Then you can pass out in front of the palace without worry.
Seriously what a weird thing to say.
ah, every time I head there I like to go to Governor’s Pub….
normally I have to eat grass if I want to puke.
I’m from the country type-o-place too (& family in Cape Breton) I miss those things to.
Find a graveyard… it works a little better for girls like us, & the creeps that peep are less likely to walk up to a body laying about in the graveyard.
My favorite place for peace & quiet! Whether it be reading a book, star starring or morning run. Seriously try it ;3
graveyards are the best, they don’t creep me out. it’s probably the crows
they make me feel at home… what with all the decaying corpses…
and marbled calligraphy…
i was the only kid that liked field trips to graveyards
