I remember just lying in the grass, staring at the clouds, wondering where they drifted off to after they floated over Texas.

I want to learn more. I want to know more. That's what taking this time is about. I'm curious about so many things, but haven't had occasion to be exposed to them enough to really appreciate them.

I'm taking time to figure out where I want to go and what I want to do next. In this line of work, you become so defined by your job.

Academics were important to my parents, as immigrants. Education is where it all begins.

Motherhood has never been an ambition. I don't think like that. I never have expectations like, 'When I'm 19 I'm going to do this, and by the time I've hit 25 I'm going to do that'. I just take things as they come, each day at a time, and if things happen then all well and good.

I still feel like Ive crashed the party.

I'm not single, I'm busy. That's my line.
