Be Young, Be Dope, Be Proud.

I'd Been Sick On Tour For About Two Years With This Medical Anomaly That Doctors Couldn't Figure Out. That's A Big Part Of My Life: I Just Feel Really Sick A Lot Of The Time And Can't Figure Out Why. I'd Gotten These Shots In Russia, Where We'd Just Been. It Was Just Heavy. It's Just Heavy Performing For People Who Really Care About You, And You Don't Really Care That Much About Yourself Sometimes.

I Was, You Know, A Mess. I Totally Wanted To Kill Myself Every Day.

I Knew I Wanted To Do Something Creative. I Didn't Think I'd Have The Luxury Of Doing Something Like That, Because I Didn't Know Anyone Who Had Pursued Anything They Really Adored, But I Had Dreams For Singing Or Writing.

I've Been Reading Tabloids Since I Was Nine. I Love A Good Story.

What Other People Think Of Me Is None Of My Business. Sometimes, It Hurts My Feelings, But I Have To Just Keep Going.
