1. I grew up in communist Romania, wearing hand-me-downs from a boy-cousin.
2. I tend to attribute my passionate loving nature, hotheadedness, and ability to curse those who severely wrong me to my gypsy origins. The curses I’ve distributed came true, however we label them as karma these days.
3. I’ve made a man fall from a tree, another hang from scaffolds up high and one little girl (may have been a boy — I was a child too) not be hit by a truck. All with the power of my thoughts.
4.
