first of all, i just want to say that i have never met an amber whom i liked. until you, even though we've never met. but you're amazing, and you've renewed my faith in the name.

i love myself because:

i always know exactly what i want. i can say what i feel, even if it's terrible, and word it in a way to that nothing seems too bad. the way i write capital A's makes them look like stars. i have the longest toes of anyone i've ever met. i can be all alone and having more fun with myself than if i were with a group of friends. i can sustain a conversation. i don't hold grudges, and i don't hate because both just take up too much energy. i'm a terrible singer but do it anyways. a challenge doesn't defeat me, it challenges me until i figure it out, even though sometimes that takes a few months for a simple math problem. i am small and my huge guy friends still know to watch their mouths because i'm tough. i develop twenty-four-hour crushes that i think will kill me, and then forget that it even happened a few days later. i smell good. i have pretty eyes. i have a cute bum which also happens to be comfortable to sit on. i am beautiful.

thank you for the inspiration.
