I had a friend whose family had dinner together. The mother would tuck you in at night and make breakfast in the morning. They even had a spare bike for a friend. It just seemed so amazing to me.

If there's anything more mortifying than being famous at 14, it's being washed up right after.

I have a tree man coming to trim the jacaranda in my front garden.

Gag me with a spoon!

I spent most of my life locked in my bedroom, miserable about my raging acne.
