Personal Quotes
Looking back on high school, I just remember specific scenarios and thinking, wow, that was such a big deal at the time, but right now it feels like it never even happened. So I guess if I can give any advice, I would just say that everything will pass, and it'll feel like it was a big deal over nothing. Life goes on and then 당신 change and other things happen, and everything feels like it's so much worse afterwards. It'll always get better.
I did Degrassi for four years. It was my constant, no matter what movie I would do on hiatus 또는 whatever I would do elsewhere, every 년 I would always go back to Degrassi, to my family, and they really sort of taught me all the groundwork and got me started. Before that I was really green, I didn't know what I was doing, so it kind of helped ease my path into the whole industry.
