The Roar

Hi! I’m Natalie and I’m addicted to cake, books and American Horror Story. I’m cluttered but can’t help turn labels to the front in stores. If I could, I would love to meet Norman Reedus and interview Robert Downey, Jr. I love fashion and sing in the Lion Heart Choir. I went to Alaska in 8th grade but have never left the country. I’ve never been to Disney World and I mix my eggs with my hash browns. I’ve been surrounded by love for motorcycles and airplanes since I was born because of my dad. As a kid I played with Barbies and dinosaurs, but never both at the same time surprisingly. You would think I would recreate Jurassic Park but nope. I just quote the movie whenever I get a chance.
