"Growing up, I often feel like I can never really fit in anywhere. I’m not cool but I’m not lame either, I'm always in between, never enough for any side. Despite this, I just know that I must never change myself to impress anyone hence this was how this piece came about.

Let’s just call her Ella because I, Ellaces, will never sell this anyways. Ella’s pink because she’s not like the rest (which are blue). She tried soaking herself to blend in with the rest but is still pink hence this time round, she’s just gonna stand out of the crowd & accept herself for who she really is because nobody is gonna ever be like her, one of a kind.
