Here is a bunch of info I've decided I want to share with the world. Obviously, I'm called Thessalian. I'm 17 years old, at the moment, and I am eagerly awaiting my eighteenth birthday, when I will be able to vote. I feel so disenfranchised when my classmates talk about making it to the polls after school. But as a 17 year old female, I clock in at 5' and I weighed 91 lbs last I checked. I know, I'm tiny. But I enjoy making people who assume I'm young feel stupid. Cruel of me, yes, but I have a bit of a Napoleon Complex, you see. I'm an overachiever in the extreme, a non- conformist, obsessive, overly analytical, a hopeless romantic, and sometimes way too sensitive for my own good. I'm a cross between a mother and a shrink for my friends; can't be their shoulder to cry on- I'm too short, so this is my alternate title. I speak English and Hebrew fluently, and enough Spanish that I can make my way through most conversations and literature, as long as it's not political or scientific. I'm beginning to learn Japanese too.
I am a professional calligrapher.
