  • smart with a lot of personality and heart

    irreverent at times, but never shallow. i enjoy the incisive takes on pop culture, and her insights make me reconsider my thoughts especially on pop songs which have always seemed merely fun and frivolous. her lyrical analyses are deep but also delightful - she makes me see my favorite songs in a new light.
