I think I've always wanted to be different from everybody else. I get really annoyed when I do something and everybody else does it too, or if I'm doing something that everybody else is doing.

When I was younger - up until I was 19 years old and in college - I was surrounded with people in high school who felt like they knew what they wanted to do with their lives, and that was intimidating to me because I didn't.

I was afraid of not living up to what people expected me to be.

But I've really learned you don't have to fit in. No matter where you go, you're always going to be you and if they don't like you for who you are, then what's the point of being someone else?

I always felt like I was a freak when I was growing up and that there was something wrong with me because I couldn't fit in anywhere.

Growing up, I just wanted to be like everyone else. I didn't value or understand the beauty in being different at the time in my life.

I have a pretty good family. But ever since I was little, I just felt like I wanted to be on my own. It was the same thing about school.

I wanted to be with the kind of people I'd grown up with, but you can't go back to them and be one of them again, no matter how hard you try.

I grew up in a small town where everyone wanted to be the same or look the same and was afraid to be different.
