The most beautiful surprise is that you have these moments where you connect with people on a deep level without saying a word. It's one of those wonderful things that you get what you give, and I'm grateful for it.

Just tell me how to be different in a way that makes sense.

The truth is, when it gets really quiet, when the silence gets too loud, i really start to miss everyone.

I have decided that maybe I want to write when I grow up. I just don't know what I would write.

He was the boy that made mix tapes with themes and hand-colored covers until the day he hit my sister and stopped crying.

If the right thing came along, I would absolutely direct something I did not write because I love the process so much, but we'll see. I'm taking it day by day.
