Matilda is a dramatic Gemini who spends most of her time overthinking. You might be surprised to know that, despite her name, she cannot move things with her mind. Her one special skill is that she doesn’t dislike any movie genre. She can watch almost any movie and somehow be interested in it. So, Matilda is often seen at the movie theater with her mom for five dollar films on Tuesday nights. You can also find her at Barnes and Noble or a cheap book store finding her next read. Having been a nanny all summer Matilda is well versed in the art of being very patient and extremely impatient simultaneously.
