I just don't really want to settle and I don't think I should have to.

Most importantly, it´s in giving thanks.

I don't really have a talent. I can't sing or act or dance or perform, those talents. All I can do is be myself.

There's always that one guy that you will always go back to. Even though you date other people in between, you are always in the back of your mind hoping to run into that guy.

One of my biggest goals, especially with writing YA novels, is just to have people enjoy reading.

I'd love to design bridal dresses.

My mother taught me to focus on being myself and not to worry what other people think about you. I know that as long as I'm a good person I'll stay on the right path. From my dad I learned that when someone tells you “No” it's only the beginning of a conversation. They both have always let me know that I can do anything I want to do as long as I don't give up. They are the most important role models in my life because they are exactly who I want to be when I grow up. They are supportive and understanding and I try every day to remember what they've taught me.
