╰ ° 「 DANIELLE CAMPBELL / TWENTY-THREE / CISFEMALE / SHE, HER / PORNSTAR 」omg! that was definitely enya crowe i just saw over there !! should i ask for a picture ? ugh, i dunno. they seem pretty melancholic… but at the same time like, really sapient ! i think i’m gonna go over there; wish me luck !!

it’s probably no little girl’s dream to be working in the porn industry? i mean it definitely wasn’t enya’s. she always thought she’d be doing something more ... boring at this point in her life, like waiting tables or something. to be fair, she was doing that for a while, but the pay was practically nothing and her tips were never that great.

she didn’t get into the industry until she met one of her now closest friends, who opened up a whole new world for her, essentially. there are things about the job that enya doesn’t love, but at least she gets more enjoyment (and better pay) out of it than she did her waitressing job.

anyway ! a bit of background ; enya’ spent the whole of her life in new york (her favorite place to be is brooklyn but mostly bc the accents make her w*t) so she’s fairly accustomed to the city. not much surprises her anymore like ... ya girl’s seen a lot in her lifetime, but she definitely loves city life !

enya’s never been super outgoing or friendly, she’s always just been kinda negative? not necessarily mean, but she just ... isn’t the type of person to look for the good in everything + everyone. she is very much a glass half empty kinda person.

her parents always taught her to question everything, and because of that she never goes into anything without extensively weighing the pros and cons first. she just likes to be careful u know. 

tbh enya is very much going thru the stage of her life where she doesn’t know what she wants to be doing. i mean she’s already p established in her industry, but she just yearns for something more u know? she jus wants to find her purpose in life bc right now she’s feelin a little lost.
