I have little feet because nothing grows in the shade

“Honestly, I was not a pretty child. We were poor and we didn’t have any way to look good. But I always wanted to be pretty. I wanted to look like the girl they called the town tramp. She wore tight clothes, too much make-up and had big yellow hair. I thought she was the prettiest thing I’d ever seen. People would say: ‘Oh, she’s just trash’, and I’d reply, ‘Well, that’s what I’m going to be when I grow up. Trash.'”
