My eyes fall on her. She is the girl I imagined on the way. Contrary to what my big imagination created, she has blonde hair that reaches to her chin. Her eyes have nothing special, they are like the usual members of our element, just blue.
Her nose is the exact opposite of mine, she tilts slightly down. Her lips on the other hand are big and oily. In addition, she is fatter than me.
