    I wish I could wear a sari. They are so petty and look amazing but I'm a white chick from texas with crazy pale skin and tattoos all over. They are sooooooo pretty though. Damn..

    The worst injury for me was a sprained ankle. I wonder how everyone else managed to break their arm or tear a ligament
