Alaska Young & Effy Stonem



Alaska Young and Effy Stonem are my kinda girls.

They have got a bad-ass view of life, and I adore that.

Alaska Young is from John Green's famous book which I really love, "Looking For Alaska" while Effy Stonem is from the British teen show, "Skins".

They're not exactly the best role models for me but they've definitely got something different and dark around them. Like a mysterious air exclusive to them. I don't necessarily adore how these two fictional characters are both self-destructive and filled with vices, but I adore how they're both intelligent and bad-ass at the same time. It's rare to find women misbehaving especially since society has formed them as demure and modest ones for centuries, but as they say "Well-behaved women rarely make history." These two girls give me the feeling that as long as you know your limits and never lose your self-respect, go for it. I'm not encouraging misbehaving in any way, but having the mindset that, "Do what you want, it's your life anyway. But make it worth to tell in the end."

Alaska Young is intelligent. Really intelligent. The type that's intimidating because she practically doesn't look like a smart alec but is one. She has a stack of books around her, and I just find myself like her. I love books. I'm a huge bookworm. Books have a way of making me happy and satisfied like nothing else in this world. Just because you're famed as a bad girl doesn't mean you do not have time to be on the good side enjoying the little things. She loves being the leader and she has the qualities of being the leader.

Effy Stonem may always be found as one with heavy and dark make-up. She looks kind of disheveled all the time but there's one thing I really like about her. She may present herself as a cold and unloving person, but I know deep inside her, she has too much love. She loves her family but fails to show it. She's always there for them and even for her own peers. I guess there's always a valuable side to any person.

I know they're both work of fiction, but I just love analyzing their characters in my own way. They've made a mark on me as historic fictional women but there's no way I'm entirely going to be like them.I'm still going to be my own person, but I can't deny, these two girls are one hell of a kind.
