As A Girl, I Am This Stupid,

I Know I'm Flawed - But Perfect Is Boring Anyway! Flawed Is Good!

After Reaching Season Two On Tv Series, Having Done A Film, And Receiving Acknowledgment In America, I Feel Like Now Whatever I Do Will Be On Me. My Choices Will Be Mine; My Disappointments Will Be Mine.

I'm A Tough Girl, I Know What My Job Entails - It Entails A Lot More Than Standing In Front Of The Camera. So I Get It. I Won't Deny The Physicality Of It Is Exhausting, And Sometimes My Body Just Can't Keep Up. But It Is Ultimately About Mind Over Matter.
