I don't really read that much stuff about myself anyways, because I feel as though you then develop this mind-set of just making sure other people would approve of your decisions.
Tavi GevinsonI feel lucky in that I don't really have to go to college to study something job-specific. I just want to go to learn about what is interesting to me and learn about the classes that you don't really get to take in high school because you have to take the basics.
Tavi GevinsonThere are moments when I am really not happy with how I look, or I think it would be an easy way out to try and do the conventionally attractive thing.
