It's kind of a funny story.

I read Ned Vizzini's book 'It's kind of a funny story', quite a while ago. It was a great book, hit me in the middle of my heart. Anyway. It was about a boy who was suicidal and, yeah this will sound rather strange, gets hospitalized. There he meets a girl who has scarred her face. Why? 'Cause she didn't want to be judged by her looks. So not everyone was allowed to see her beauty. Ok, that was a really shallow description of the girl, read the book!
But the scary thing is... I understand why she did it. Really. I don't like being pretty. Or something like pretty. I don't want to be looked at, I just want to be left alone.
