Smile

Dry and sarcastic delivery of dialogue.

I personally think that confidence, honesty and just being true to yourself is the most beautiful thing you can do for yourself and the people around you. But also, it's important, you know, to stop being defined by what other people think of you, or how they disappoint you and just live life to the fullest and realize that your happiness is first and foremost.

[on past relationship troubles and overcoming] The problem, I think, anyways is that sometimes we hold on, we hold on tight and are blinded by love. What we think is love is not love whatsoever, it actually ends up bringing you down more than anything in the world. And I held on for very long, who knows maybe because I was afraid of being alone, but that being said letting go was one of the best decisions I've ever made and it taught me a lot. I became more confident, more true to myself, became happier realizing I don't need anyone else to make me happy but me.
