Affect Quote by Anonymous
“I almost always mess up. I fall too easily in love. I cry over boys. I'm not the prettiest girl you can find. I think makeup can hide what I dont want people to see. I talk way too much. I laugh at the stupidest things. But the thing that gets me most is that I let people affect me ... When really, they mean nothing at all to me.”
