#teameureka

Ever since I can remember, I have been fat and loud. Ever since I was a kid I have been told by friends and family and bullies alike that I'm too loud, that I'm too much, that I'm obnoxious and annoying and hard to get along with, that I get too excited about too much. I have been told to shut up, to lose weight, that I'm ugly, that I will never be beautiful and loved as I am. Countless times. Up until recently, I have really and truly believed all that as well. I myself found Eureka annoying as Hell until I realized the core reason why I do - she's just like me. She is big and she is too much and that was the part of my core personality I have been trying to kill for years. She's the confident, loud, big woman I wish I had the strength to be. She, hopefully with some work, is who I could be in a few years. And that's why Eureka O'Hara is my queen. Thank you, Eureka, for strutting all you have so proudly and showing me I CAN be successful and loved just as I am. That I don't have to shut up, stand in the corner and be ashamed of who I am because someone once told me to. It's time for a big girl to win and there's NO-ONE more deserving in the drag race big girl hall of fame than Eureka! Prints of this available for sale at my redbubble shop!
