I'm overdramatic, self-deprecating, a hopeless romantic and a badass motherfucker. I'm a child of the suburbs by birth, but a city girl at heart. The phrase "vita dulcis" is Latin for "the sweet life" because I felt it was marginally less pretentious to use a dead language instead of a modern language that I don't actually speak.
