A Quote by Louis Theroux

The me that would one day find some beautiful, intelligent boy who'd recognize me as his soul mate. The me who was secretly pretty and stylish if only someone would lift the veil and see.

And that would explain why I stood in a room full of people and felt like the loneliest girl in the world.
