Yo, Ms. Independent

Date

I don’t get it when people tell me this, “You’re so driven, you intimidate people.”

I seriously don’t get it, what’s so intimidating about me other than my height? (I just realized that I tower most people, which isn’t really funny. It means that David Archie and I could never be!)

That was until I heard this song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sX4MAnIY7x0&feature=related

Now, I know what they meant by it.

I’m a driven and highly ambitious person and I’m not afraid to say it.

I just never realized that it was a bad thing and drove most people away, what’s wrong with a girl wanting to be successful?

I think this whole damsel in distress thing got a little old already. I don’t need to be saved, how many times do I have to say it?
