My mom always makes the whole family pile into the car and drive around to look at the Christmas lights. My brother and I never want to do it, but my mom just loves it!

I'm introverted by nature, and I need to have some things of my own.

Look at what you want to change, gather a few people who believe in it like you do, and start moving forward. It's important to remember that you don't always need a destination. Sometimes, you just have to make forward motion. And you absolutely can.

I work with kids, and I see certain things, so I realize now why my mother was so horrified and overprotective of everything that I watched.

Music is such an intensely personal thing for me, and I knew if I was going to do it, it would be in my own way.
