Selena Gomez at Hollywood Beauty Awards : Even though the Patau dress strongly resembles an insect, I can’t help but still be charmed by this look and much of the reason has to do with those strong pair of Aquazzura heels and that delightfully graceful hairdo that complimented the dress so nicely. It also doesn’t hurt that the color looks pretty great on her. All in all, Selena looked fab!

Studying is killing me. Not because of how agonizingly boring it is, I've moved past that. It's because of some of the material I have to study. 

For instance, autosomal trisomies. Like Patau's syndrome.

I fucking dare you to google that shit.
