| Quotes: |
I feel really content in my 30s actually. I don't feel like the wisest person in the world but I definitely don't worry or stress like I used to.
<br />
<hr>
I was a big fan of The Smurfs (1981) growing up, even though by default - my mom used to force me to watch because she was a "Smurfs" fan.
<br />
<hr>
I definitely know that I'm quirky. I know that I'm different. Red hair definitely made me different growing up.
<br />
<hr>
I did math in school, obviously. And I loved all my math teachers.
<br />
<hr>
I don't remember my dreams. I'm one of those weird people. I know there are tricks and things you can do, but I never remember my dreams. |
