Melody

Melody, 15 - Wisconsin
Hi :) I've been a type 1 diabetic for ten years now. I'm into drawing, writing, rock music, and the artsy side of computers. I'm one of the more quiet people at my school and don't fit in all that great, which (though it can be extremely frustrating) I am honestly proud of. :) Feel free to message me to talk, ask questions about living with diabetes that I can maybe help you with, or just to vent. <3
