As we all know, when you're an athlete things are a little bit easier for you. It didn't mean that what was going on inside my heart wasn't a bit of a thunderstorm, but outwardly I got along ok. I was really shy in seventh grade.

I don't know if it's better to be close with your daughter or make sure that she has a better life than you do.

Do you think if people knew how crazy you really were, no one would ever talk to you?

Maybe it’s sad that these are now memories. And maybe it’s not sad.

I love my mom. And this time, I told her I loved her. And she told me she loved me, too. And things were okay for a little while.

I don't know the significance of this, but I find it very interesting.

As people get older, we all know, you get married and you have a child and that becomes your family, but when you're 16 years old, especially, your family is your friends.
