Cherished [Jake White remix]

There is this girl I hang out with sometimes, not by choice, simply because she is friends with my friend. She has 3 rings on her left hand, 4 on her right. This wouldn’t bother me usually but they are chunky and discoloured. They make her fingers stain a greenish colour, due to the cheap metal which is constantly wrapped around her knuckle jarred fingers.

Her lipstick is awful. Not just the colour, which is more of a purple then a red, but the way she applies it. The supposed-to-be thin line of lipstick is drawn on fat and over extends her lips by at least half a centimetre. From a distance it looks okay, but up close the disproportion is repulsive.

Her hair is another thing which looks rather evil in texture. Instead of a few blonde streaks, which are much the fashion in this day of age, she wears it with thick blonde lines which separate the dark red/purple hair. It much resembles a zebra of some sort. The amount of product and hair spray is enough to kill a fully grown Chihuahua. In a photo taken on her sixteenth birthday it is shoulder length, full of life, blonde, beautiful if that word could be used to describe hair. Why she changed it I’ll never know.

A tan would disguise the almost transparent skin which covers her arms, legs and face, and God knows what other parts of her body, which I wouldn’t even dream about seeing.

When she is at my friend’s house she gets drunk far too often and in the worse way possible. Far from a charming lady-like figure, she gets violent and threatens people over matters not concerning other people.

Her teeth are as crooked as a 1934 picket fence, and the same colour as it, never having a touch up coat of paint.

The jeans she wears are far too small, the resemblance of a mushroom when her stomach hangs out from the sides of her jeans provides no flattery at all

And yet when she looks at herself in the mirror, she giggles a revolting little laugh, like she has seen the next top model of Australia.
