"Do you ever feel like a plastic bag"

"I remember really vividly kneeling by my bed as a nine-year-old, saying my prayers and asking God to give me boobs that were so big that if I laid on my back I wouldn’t be able to see my feet."

"Im not defined by where I came from. I never took part in the rules and hatred that sometimes go along with religion. But if my parents are happy with what they believe, then Im happy to stay out of their way. We agree to disagree."

"I was like, I dont know if I can hold that promise [to wait until marriage to have sex with kane tod] because this guy at camp is really cute. Sex wasnt talked about in my home, but I was a very curious young girl."

"I had really bad back problems and was a little bit thicker. Then I grew up and lost the baby fat and said, Hey, this isnt all that bad."

"My best friend once gave me a framed 19th century book called What Katy Did Next. I’ve never read it, but the title has always stuck with me. That’s the point - it’s about continuing to move forward, and dream."
