REAL model: Jordan, 15

What you can't tell about the REAL me from this photo:

That I want to inspire people with my writing and make people listen to what I have to say. I want people to trust me and come to me when they need advice. That I want to forget about all the bad things that have gone on in the past five years and just live. That I've played the violin since I was 8, or that I'm a part of the Color Guard at my high school. Or that I'm half Puerto Rican for that matter. You can't tell that I've been through sexual harassment, abuse, and years of teasing at school because of my weight and clothing. You can't tell that I'm extremely afraid of the dark, blood, needles, and being alone.You can't tell that whenever someone puts me down, I stand in front of a mirror and tell myself 5 things that I'm good at or that I like about myself.
