I am a single child. Ya, ya I get it, the image of one pampered, arrogant, and dramatic girl running over your mind. But that’s fine, that’s how the media portrays if a girl is privileged enough as the son. The biggest ultimate value of my purpose began here. People tag me as a feminist and whatever, but I am particularly not a fan of these words before my name. Why is it even made to sound the opposite of men? I wonder.

Onto that road of highs and lows
Of peaks and valleys.
