When I was a little girl we had a dark skinned girl in our school who was unbelievably cool. I really admired her and wanted to be like here. I would always pray every night and ask God if he could make me more like her. When that summer I got a lot of freckles I went into this happy tantrum thinking I was turning into my heroin...
