Everything is always a little surreal.

I love doing what I do. I'm a born mentor. I've launched so many people's careers. I worked hard.

I can't wait to be back on the dance floor. I feel really good about it.

I dance because I have to, because I'm so passionate about it.

There are many talented people.

All you can do is the best you can do.

I had my first kiss under a tree near the school. It was with a boy named Michael who rarely spoke, but he would sometimes give me one of the cookies from his lunch. Maybe it was the gifts that made me feel special? I don't know, but when our lips touched, it felt magical.
