I do love that discovery of when you're trying to figure out how to make something work, and it happens in a way that you didn't predict.

I do like to be surprised.

I knew what infinity was. Being a previous art student, I knew about some art concepts.

I know if I did that [career as painter] all the time I would get tired of it.

I don't think about it that much, but sometimes I am surprised by that. I sometimes wonder why I didn't turn out to be the kind of picture-book writer who has stuffed animals that go with their books. That would be okay with me.

I know I'm still young and there's a lot of time for things to happen, but sometimes I think there is something about me that's wrong, that I'm not the kind of person anyone can fall in love with, and that I'll always just be alone.

The morning time is also a time when I look at what I did yesterday. That's often a jumping-off point for today.
