I have it. But for those of you who aren't quite familiar with the term, here is a definition:
"Peter Pan syndrome, a desire to remain young and not face the responsibilities of youth, is the natural result of anyone who had a good childhood. The naive security of youth is looked upon fondly as an ideal state of being. Although the "condition," which is really just a state of mind, has gained a negative connotation in quasi-psychological use, it is actually a normal part of the post-adolescent mindset. If, however, the Peter Pan is to completely shun adult responsibility to the detriment of happiness or relationships, he can be said to be a "victim" of this syndrome."

Labels...
I hate them. Especially, when we label people... This is why I say I'm nobody instead of describing myself. I could also say "anybody", I suppose. But because I'm fan of Emily Dickinson's, I say nobody.
I don't say I'm nobody because I think I am useless in this world or anything... I just say it because, to me, even saying whether I'm a male or female is a label. You don't think so? Then it's because you don't know any transgender. A boy in the body of a girl or vice versa... until they officially change sex, they hesitate to adopt either label. So do I have to start talking about skin colour, sexuality, religion, etc. to make my point? We can't just label people like we label things. Yet, so many people do so.
At my former work, my colleges were the kings of labelling people. And they were so insulting towards customers, once they were gone. The assumptions they made... it made me sick. So I'm not doing a straight forward presentation of myself. You'll figure out what you need to know about me soon enough.

Welcome to My Pink Blog!
Why a pink blog? Because 1) it's pretty, 2) pink makes me feel better on rainy days and 3) cuz this blogger layout is totally cute. Ok, I might have to change my blog's name if I ever want to change the blog's colour but so what? Now I want it pink. Later is later and not important right now. (Although an entirely blue blog with a title like "Pink Blog" would be quite original)
So uh... what to say? I've started some other blogs in the past but I felt the need for a brand new one, so here it is. What can you expect to find in here? Hum... life sharing, maybe also a bit of art and crafts. I'll try and update regularly. I swear!
Who am I? Well... Nobody. And for the rest, I'll let you discover it with every post...
