I just had my nose in books and spent the rest of the time painting and sewing things.

no weaponry allowed when I was a kid, including water pistols
I think I'm trying to paint a place I haven't written a story about yet, but which has been hanging round in my head for quite a while.

I fucking need to get my arse in gear and start drawing again.
If hypnosis worked on me I'd try that.

That sounds interesting.
Hmmm, no weapons = massive LARPer, this is paralel to a friend of mine in her case, no dollys = grew up to be a walking barbie doll.

it occurred to me recently
that throughout most of my teens I didn't actually know any girls who shared any of the same interests. I barely knew any who liked rock music for instance.

Getting to uni and finding out that such girls existed was awesome.
