With girls, friendships are hard because you have to learn to get to a maturity level to love them but not want to be them.

If I ever find myself overwhelmed, it's only because I am overwhelmed by how much more I want to learn. That is what drives me.

I have always been a very passionate person. Some people are born with this fire burning inside to "do," or create, with an insatiable hunger for knowledge and experience, and I am no exception.

We live in a world where sort of nothing is shocking anymore.

I think my mother is my biggest influence. There are so many things I hate about her but at the same time I'm thankful for her. All I know is that when I'm a parent I want to be just like my mom. I can talk to my mom more than any of my friends could talk to their parents.

The degradation of our environment is undeniably a direct result of our lack of regard, lack of accountability, and lack of responsibility.

In middle school, we are all so damn insecure. It was the worst time for me, really destructive, like slapping myself across the face but loving it. Now I have to be an adult and change myself. I have to be a bigger person.
