Gwendolyn JOY - I told my mother for 20 years I was going to change it. Now, I couldn't think of a more appropiate name, people always remember it too.
Funny, I used to hate olives & beets too, but that changes with age I guess. 🙂
i think that i fit that description pretty well. i've always been the "girl who never stops smiling" ever since i was a toddler. i was an uncontrollably hyper child; my relatives would visit me everyday (it became tradition lol).
i would smile to everybody, strangers i meet on the street, homeless ppl, ppl who look like they just had a PMS attack, everyone.
and then my mom had to kill it by telling me that if i'm too friendly to strangers, they would rape me and eat me up alive. she scared the freaking hell out of me.
but i didn't really listen to her, even though i would get pathetically paranoid every now and then.
i just don't think that she gave me the best advice about the "not talking to strangers" deal. maybe it's just me, but i think that she could have done better in that arena.
