Childhood decisions do not have to define you.

If you have three people in your life that you can trust, you can consider yourself the luckiest person in the whole world.

They tell me what to wear, how to look, what I should say, how I should be. Until recently I had given into that pressure, I lost sight of who I was. I listened to opinions of people and I tried to change who I am because I thought others would accept me for it. And I realized I don't know how to be anything but myself.

But I have to tell you, I get it all day, every day, I'm not sexy enough, or I'm not cool enough, or if I did this I would be accepted. Let me tell you one thing: the sexiest thing is class. I promise you that each and every one of you is made to be who you are. That is what's so attractive and beautiful. Please don't forget that, even when it gets hard.

My attention span is all over the place, and I overthink things. I'm an insomniac.

I have a right to live my life and just be me with whoever I choose. We just do the best we can.

I feel like I should be able to be 18 and have the friends that I choose and to have fun and live my life.
