A very beautiful girl that can be insecure a lot of time about some of the littlest things. Always looks for help from friends, and tends to be either very popular or a outcast there is no in between. Easily be made mad and may seem very week but is actually unusually strong. Also can fit in any friend group really because of fun personality and is a great girlfriend because of there romantic-ness and adventure drived soul.Plus she is very smart but acts like she's not so she wont be labeled that, and she's very funny and will always keep a smile on your face. So if you ever meet a Mecca keep her.
