There are lots of things I would've done different and if there's any views that offend etc, I was young and naive and had no idea what I was talking about. The fact it's got so many reads is crazy to me as it was just something I enjoyed. Some of the rude comments on it I understand but as I said I was very young and it does make me cringe to read it back now but please read and enjoy!*
