“Girls know they are losing themselves… Girls become fragmented, their selves spilt into mysterious contradictions. They are sensitive and tenderhearted, mean and competitive, superficial and idealistic. They are confident in the morning and overwhelmed with anxiety by nightfall.

They try on new roles every week: this week the good student, next week the delinquent and the next, the artist.”— Mary Pipher, Reviving Ophelia: Saving the Selves of Adolescent Girls

Do shit because you like it.
