Since sophomore year of high school, I've been traveling around Connecticut performing at high schools, elementary and middle schools, colleges, and institutes to portray and send messages to the audience about abuse, bullying, and situations that extend itself to suicide. Through this, I found what my passion in life is and even had a few breakthrough moments with it.

Once I graduated, I knew that acting is what I wanted to pursue in life. Though establishing yourself in the art world isn't the easiest in the world, I'm driven by dedication and passion. This has brought me to gain skills involved in prioritizing and being hardworking. I've learned to create impossible goals for myself, and through ambition, finding my own opportunities and making those impossible goals completely possible. That, in essence, is what ambition should be doing, no? Without setting impossible goals, the achievements that you'll get are astonishing and amazing, but the real dreams come true from the impossible. My dream career is to be an actor for movies and tv shows. To get here, I have to build my portfolio of work and find connections with my friends and professors.

Every day, I have new ideas for films or stories that I can envision in full and find friends that are just as dedicated to making that vision happen aids in who I can work with heavily. Essentially, following what I love best and making sure that's always in my sight is key to making that impossibility a real thing I'm living for.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
