hullo friends thanks for watching! Sorry for the rain at the start, it goes away after 10 seconds which is nice comparison is the thief of joy, and as humans we compare ourselves way too much, particularly us creative types. so it really sucks when other people do it for us. A bit different, but I really enjoyed writing, making this, aka PeppermintOllie dabbles with FADE AFFECTS Poem down below :) See you soon!

Ill panic and i will feel darkness inside of me and i will get up and i will do it all anyway and you have now power her hello. my name is Olivia and I am me
