forever weird
My name is Molly and I post things.
20-year-old student of English, hailing from the far northern reaches (a.k.a. Canada), and I've spent twenty minutes thinking of something to write in this bio space.
If you speak sarcasm and really dislike it when people are idiots and enjoy a good book and a cup of tea, you might like me.

My favorite films | Star Wars: A New Hope (1977 George Lucas)
“Kid, I’ve flown from one side of this galaxy to the other, and I’ve seen a lot of strange stuff, but I’ve never seen *anything* to make me believe that there’s one all-powerful Force controlling everything. ‘Cause no mystical energy field controls *my* destiny. It’s all a lot of simple tricks and nonsense.”

If Dr. Seuss created Star Wars. by Jason Peltz via @ThinkGeek
I can’t even.
Get in my childhood, you epic books!

Dublin
You see, this is what I love about Ireland.
Most people would look at that rock and say; “gosh, that’s a pretty cool rock, I wonder how it stays up like that?”
No. That is not the right way to do things.
The Irish look at that and say; “I’m going to build a house on that fucker.”
The Irish are scary extreme.
