But I don't want to be referred to as "a girl".
I know I'm just an ordinary person, nothing special and all. Not an overachiever, or an achiever for that matter. Nothing.
But I don't really want to be referred to as "a girl". If possible, I would prefer to be just simply "a person". Simplicity at its best.
Strip me off of my gender, my status, my look, my background, or whatever that made ppl think they know me before they really get to know me. Strip me off of them please.
Strip me off of them, so that I would be left as just a blank paper, without any decorations that can distract you from seeing who I am.
And then you can gradually fill in that blank paper, when you start to sit down and read me. It may not be anything fanciful, may be even boring, but you get to see me as I am.
Fill in that blank paper with my actions, my thoughts, my personality, my mind. Can be my laughters, my jokes, my words. Can be my memories, my experiences. Can be what I choose, what I like, what I adore, what I respect, and what I love.
I am defined by myself.
PS: this thought is a result of a question that I'm asked "are you sure you are a girl or not?" :|
