Over the summer I thought that I would seek out non-Americans as friends, just for diversity's sake. Now I find that I want to be around Americans - people who I know are thinking about our country as much as I am.
Millennials are often portrayed as apathetic, disinterested, tuned out and selfish. None of those adjectives describe the Millennials I've been privileged to meet and work with.
My marriage is incredibly important to me. It's the place from which I engage in the world every day, and the place to which I return every day.
I love my parents, and I want my mother to be president.
I think about how best to live my grandmother's twin mantras that 'Life is not a dress rehearsal' and 'Life is not about what happens to you, but what you do with what happens to you.'
My mother is very good in Scrabble. In Boggle, my father is probably better.
We have to do whatever we can to ensure that no child dies of diarrhea.

Millennials regularly draw ire for their cell phone usage. They're mobile natives, having come of age when landlines were well on their way out and payphones had gone the way of dinosaurs.

I have never thought of my life as being an enigma.
People recognize me. Most people are really nice. Sometimes people say, 'Hi, Chelsea.'
