The Bumpy Road To Eternal Teenager Bliss - Julia Starr

Sorry, I couldn't resist making that title.

-JULIA ROSE STARR-

Julia has a secret. A deep dark secret.
She doesn't like it when we tell anyone, so if she found out I posted this on the blog I would be a doomed for like a doll running from scissors.
Julia...well...she has.. synesthesia.
Synesthesia isn't a harmful disease. Its just something you might be born with. Its when two of your senses are crossed, so that whenever you see letters they have their own particular sound in your mind or whenever you hear a dog's bark you see zizags in the air, or maybe even when you hear a particular person's voice you taste a particular food. It can be anything involving, sight, hearing, or voice...

Julia sees particular colors of lettering and sounds and shapes of sounds. She has told me that my name is light green with a glossy blue coating.

Before she came here, she was going to a public school for kindergarten and made the mistake of telling her friend that she saw colors. Soon the whole school knew, and they were asking her what color their names were. But a few months later, the good side of the fame ended. People started looking at her like she was a freak and stuff. "It was like they thought I was from the Underworld." Julia cringes.
Her dreams of cheerleading and modeling were diminishing, and her own father thought she was a freak. Her mother was the only one she cared about. So she decided to go to a different family of dolls and get taken care of by a Human, and to this day she contacts her mother through email, webcam, instant messaging, letters, postcards and more.

Julia obviously loves to cheerlead and she has dreams of becoming a model when she turns 15, and then getting on the cover of Seventeen magazine befoe she IS seventeen. Then she will spend her days cheerleading for the Toronto Raptors until she starts to wrinkle.

Haha. ;)

    Well, at least she has you, your family and her mom for support :)
    and it'd be really cool to see her on the cover of Seventeen!

  3. Poor Julia. I thought she was mean on the outside, but it turns out she was a lonely puppy on the inside. I know the feeling.
