In My Teens, I Was Never Part

My Mom Is A Hard Worker. She Puts Her Head Down And She Gets It Done. And She Finds A Way To Have Fun. She Always Says, 'happiness Is Your Own Responsibility.' That's Probably What I Quote From Her And Live By The Most.

It's Not A Bad Thing, Is It, To Be Strong In Some Ways And Fragile And Vulnerable In Others?

My Mom Gave Me A Good Piece Of Advice. She Said Never Marry A Man Thinking You Can Change Him, And I Think That Starts From Your First Date When You're In The Seventh Grade Onwards. Women Are Fixers So We Have To Just Not Fix. Don't Fix.

I Am The Model Middle Child. I Am Patient And I Like To Take Care Of Everyone. Being Called Nice Is A Compliment. It's Not A Boring Way To Describe Me.

I Rebelled By Not Getting Straight A's And Not Following The Path That My Elder Sister Did. She Was Valedictorian And Is Very Exemplary In Her Way. I Look A Lot Like Her, So I Just Had To Do The Opposite. Not That I Got Bad Grades, But I Was All About Performance And Just Finding Any Way That I Could To Be Involved In Any Kind Of Production.
