“Definitely my dad, just because he’s with me through everything, and he always chose his own support for me… whenever I had a problem, I would just go to him with it, and he would tell me everything that either I’m doing wrong or someone else is doing wrong, and just help me get through it… I think my dad being in the Army for 10 years, and me just moving all over the place, I think that helped shape who I am today, just because I know a lot of other kids wouldn’t ever get that experience, and I think it’s just a really unique thing… I think I just kind of live my life and I don’t really look back… I think people can look at me and think I’m mean sometimes, just because they don’t know my personality, I guess I have, I don’t know, just that kind of face… I think a lot of people, even if they are close to you, they can judge you sometimes for grades or actions that they see, and then they don’t know where you’re at personally. So I think they can just take things out on you and not really understand what’s really going on with you… I would say, don’t let anyone make you think you’re not worth it. Make you think you’re not important to anyone because you are important to someone out there.”
