pain nice people
Excitable, easily distracted, sometimes vacant, prone to gloominess and also extreme euphoria; I can’t be generous with time, but I try to be generous with affection. I’m really lucky to be able to be in some of these situations and it feels really nice to be able to take people along with me for the ride. Oh, and I’m a pain in the ass as well.
live-and-learn you-live-and-you-learn you-live-and-learn
You live and you learn.
choir obsessed overwhelming
I'm obsessed with choirs, and always have been, because of that sense of overwhelming vocals.
girl growing-up dancing
I was always that girl growing up who you could find dancing down supermarket aisles. It's that sense of not feeling inhibited. Dancing in supermarkets is my favorite thing.
thinking feelings emotion
There's such an extreme feeling to be in love, especially in quite an emotionally destructive relationship, where you're both kind of really bad for each other, but you love each other so much. Those extreme emotions, I think, can only be described with extreme imagery.
thinking favors going-to-work
I think I've always looked older than I am. I hope that's going to work in my favor when I get older.
heart thinking hands
Where's my heart at? Aw. Um, in my chest. I think it's in there - on the right hand side. Sometimes it's in my mouth and sometimes I can feel it in my stomach, when I get really nervous. So it's pretty physical.
hair self awkward
If you asked me to go back to being 14 or 15, I couldn't - it was a terrifying time. I was so awkward in my own skin. I used to hide behind my hair because I was so ridiculously self-conscious.
people effort style
It's very flattering when you look into the crowd and people have made an effort and dressed in your style.
conversation anxious stuck
In a conversation, the words can get stuck, I don't know what to say, I get very anxious.
people judgement stage
The stage is a place where I can be wholly myself. Even though you're in front of people almost to be judged, it is a place without judgement.
thinking scary exorcism
I think music should be scary. Music is an exorcism.
mean thinking feelings
I can't ever seem to shake the feeling that when things are really good it essentially means that things are going to go really bad. When I feel calm and settled, there is always an underlying feeling of impending doom... I don't think that it's healthy.
real nerves life-is
The stage is the place I feel comfortable - it's almost as if real life is where I feel most nervous. Conversations are a lot more nerve-wracking.
