I'm tired of everlastingly being unnatrual & never doing anything I want to do. I'm tired of acting like I don't eat more than a bird & walking when I want to run & saying I feel faint after a waltz when I could dance for two days & never get tired. I'm tired of saying "How wonderful you are" to fool men who haven't got one-half sense I've got & I'm tired of pretending I don't know anything so men can tell me things & feel important while they're doing it. Why is it a girl has to act so silly to get a husband? Someday I'm going to do & say everything I want to do & say & if people don't like, I don't care.
