First off, I'm not kynophobic. My name is Valerie, although better known as Val and Valie. I'm a rabid Malik fangirl and I am a high school senior - not clinically, of course. I love all animals, especially canidae and cacomistles. I am a closet Pocket Monsters fan, my favorite Pokémon being Mew and Mewtwo. The best books of all time are Exquisite Corpse, I Can Hear the Mourning Dove, Speak, and Dragon Sword and Wind Child. I wish I weighed 50 pounds less. Although never popular, I did use to have friends until the assholes ditched me. I love vegans. I have a history of mental disorders - psychosis NOS, severe major depression, bulimia, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Unlike all other teens, music is not my life. I am an Essence Christian, and knew about Mary Magdalene's importance long before "The Da Vinci Code" was published. Please add me to your friends list - I will love you forever.
