To begin, I must admit...
I've never fit in.
Sure, I know you're thinking that this is just another angst-ridden, insecure, 'woe-is-me' comment to fish for reassurances.
No.
It's simply fact.
For starters,
I have an afro.
And when I say afro, I mean I have 5 different types of curls in my hair, afro. The circumference of my hair is 3 times the size of my head, afro. The room hushes and everyone stares as I walk in, afro.
I am also the only one in my family that looks nothing like the rest of my siblings.
My humor is so off-beat, I find I am usually the only one laughing. Laughing at my own jokes to pretend like I'm funny.
I am overly inquisitive. Paralysis by analysis, so they say.
I eat cereal for every meal of the day.
I am a deeply religious person, and my love for God is one of, if not THE, biggest defining factors of me. (Or so I'd hope... Hah.)
My name is Jenn.
I'm 18 years of age.
White.
Not adopted.
And, oh yeah-
I'm mormon.
And this?
This is Jenn in Real Life.
Welcome.
