I'm Into Mellow Dates With Really Good

You Go To New Places And It Opens Your Eyes To Different Things You Haven't Seen Before. Everything From Colors, To Silhouettes, To Patterns - It Just Comes From Everywhere.

I Like To Know Exactly What's Being Put Into My Food.

I'm A Bad Dater. I'm The Most Socially Awkward Person, Like Carrying On Conversations And Stuff.

I Felt Bad About Myself Because Certain People Were Relentlessly Attacking Me And My Reputation. My Mom Kept Saying 'let It Go, Lauren, It Doesn't Matter' ... [i] Realized I Had To Stop Worrying About What Other People Think. The Next Day I Got A Tattoo On My Lower Back That Says 'sticks And Stones', Because They May Break My Bones, But Words Will Never Hurt Me.

My Mother Taught Me To Focus On Being Myself And Not To Worry What Other People Think About You. I Know That As Long As I'm A Good Person I'll Stay On The Right Path. From My Dad I Learned That When Someone Tells You “no” It's Only The Beginning Of A Conversation. They Both Have Always Let Me Know That I Can Do Anything I Want To Do As Long As I Don't Give Up. They Are The Most Important Role Models In My Life Because They Are Exactly Who I Want To Be When I Grow Up. They Are Supportive And Understanding And I Try Every Day To Remember What They've Taught Me.
