The future Queen Bat, who had straight hair, to the disappointment of QB's mother, who permed her hair at age six. Nowadays, Queen Bat keeps her hair straight without interference.

At age six, she learned to read, and never looked back. At age ten, she discovered Greek mythology, and devoured several whole libraries of it.
The future Queen Bat was once mistaken for Britt Ekland, by some excited shop attendants in London's Kings Road, in July 1967. This was the summer when she was busy being a mod, wearing Levi's and walking barefoot everywhere. Her parents pried her away from this exciting existance, for a holiday week in London. There, flower power had just become the latest craze, and hippies selling bells were on every street corner. Being thirteen, Queen Bat was not amused by being accompanied by PARENTS everywhere, and kept walking ten yards behind - not barefoot, though - this was forbidden by said parents.
A tulip is still a tulip? Don't ask why the future Queen Bat chose to utilize such a decoration. Admire instead the raspberry-red coat, bought in King's Road, London (see above).
