Melissa. 18. Addict of many things, including but not limited to Harry Potter, New York City, wordplay, making gifs, literature, Anglophilia, and the gratuitous over-analysis of fictional characters and dynamics on a wide range of television shows. I listen, I think, I write, but not necessarily in that order. Currently attempting to reconcile my fractured consciousness by means of fantasy, reality, curiosity, and the occasional bout of anxiety. I believe that metaphors are omnipresent and tend to err on the side of sarcasm. This existence is brought to you by coffee.
