In honor of me being done of school, here's a poem that has absolutely nothing to do with school, and everything to do with me :)

My name is Tricia
Also known as Patty

My face is framed
By shoulder-length brown hair
That hangs limply unless it's blow-dried
My glasses hide my blue eyes
That turn green in the heat of summer
My chapped lips are constantly drenched in lip gloss
And my pink and green braces
Hurt.

I obsess over penguins, teapots, and "When Harry Met Sally"
Cold creamy ice cream makes me shiver,
But I devour it in the dead of winter, and
I am happiest in the company of chocolate.

I have a weakness for cheesy reality shows.

I would love to collect sand in Hawaii
Gaze at the green of the French countryside
Explore the canals of Venice, and
Race through the deep blue water at the Great Barrier Reef.

I will dance anywhere and everywhere
But dancing in the rain
Or on a beach by moonlight
Beats a school dance anyday!

I am scared by snakes, hornets, and wasps
And also by the thought of losing a friend
Over something stupid,
Or of having my heart broken.

I may be a pushover,
But don't step on my toes.

I am quiet, but I am loud!!!
I'm serious, but I love being crazy
I try to prove myself, but I don't know why.
I cry over nothing.
I want to be alone, but then I change my mind
So I talk to myself
To feel better.

My days are filled with learning, thinking,
Talking, listening, laughing, and trying
To be who I am
If I can figure that out.

I am Patty
Whoever I am, I can't change
And why would I want to?
