I think I was always a little sponge as a kid, and I was always looking for more information constantly.

I used to dislike it, but now I like it more and more, feeling small. I like feeling like a little speck.

I think it's always the moments that are the trials that end up making you become a hero in the end. You're not a hero unless you've gone through the trials. And it makes these moments so much sweeter, so much better. I don't believe in 'deserved,' but I might believe in 'earned.'

I think that I write about stuff that others don't write about. I don't have a bunch of love songs cuz I don't really have much boy experience. I just write about what I am actually going through in my real life.

I think it starts to feel really redundant when you start to do something the same way over and over again. I don't think it's good to become so dependent on a certain writing process.

I was born in Sacramento but moved to Los Angeles with my mom and my little sister when I was seven.
