I do agree to a certain extent that it is unfortunate that I have to be a little more aware of being a kid and growing up and figuring out who I am, but at the same time, it's part of what I love.
You can't shut down, you can't say, 'What can I do to make this go away?'. You have to let it be painful and get through it. Every day gets better. Because when you're in love, you kind of give everything and make that person your life. So every day you get more and more of yourself back, and it feels better.
I feel like I should be able to be 18 and have the friends that I choose and to have fun and live my life.
I think regular school is harder than my job. You have to deal with kids picking on you, and you wanting to look good and all this stuff. It was way too much pressure.
Artistically, you want to be able to do a lot of things that can challenge you to not just stay in the same thing.
Making new friends is tough. You don't really know who to trust when you're away from people that you love a lot.
I've very emotional. When I went through my first breakup, I thought it was the end of the world, and I thought I was going to die if I didn't have him in my life. It was good to cry it out, and just scream, or call my friends in the middle of the night crying.
There's an amount of love that can never - no matter what - be taken away or torn apart, no matter the situation. There are certain people who you will always, always love.
I'd much rather be the oddball out than kind of create something of myself that I'm not proud of.
You made me insecure, Told me I wasn't good enough.
I want someone honest, someone who's very sweet to my family and friends, and polite to the other people around me.
I don't know how to be anything but myself
Sometimes when you're in love, there are things you feel that you can't really explain. It doesn't really make sense. That's how I feel when i'm in love
The Jonas Brothers are all sweet. They're so amazing to me. They've become really good friends of mine, but I'm not dating any of them.
