I am trying to make my accent so it won't bother anyone, but I am not going to drive myself crazy trying to pretend I am an American girl when I am from Colombia.
You can't achieve anything in life without a small amount of sacrifice.
I pefer an ugly truth to a pretty lie. If someone is telling me the truth that is when I will give my heart.
Scars remind me of just how far that I've come.
In this life, to earn your place you have to fight for it.
For several years I worried a lot about protecting an image, but today I have understood that the image cannot be preconceived.
