Growing up, I think I always knew I was different. — © Rosie Jones
Growing up, I think I always knew I was different.
Growing up, I knew I was different. But I didn't know what it meant to be Aboriginal. I just knew that I had a really big, extended family. I was taught nothing about who we were or where we came from.
I think back to the old people I knew when I was growing up, and they always seemed larger than life.
I think growing up in Vancouver is a different lifestyle than growing up in most other places.
That image is a couple different people's homes that I knew growing up.
I was very different than everybody else growing up. I spoke a different language at home, I ate different food, and I looked different. So I could always relate to Aladdin in that way, being the outcast.
When I was growing up in Terrell, Texas, I felt that it was not where I was supposed to be. I knew that I was meant for a different destination. I think that the minute I was born, there was something inside telling me where I would go, it's like energy - an intangible destiny.
I don't care about age very much. I think back to the old people I knew when I was growing up, and they always seemed larger than life.
I think I was always a class clown growing up and a funny kid. I never really knew how to channel that until I got into high school.
Growing up biracial and speaking four languages - French, Chinese, Portuguese, and English - gave me a different lens. I was always very acutely aware of coming from a different perspective. I think that definitely contributed to what I chose to do with my life.
I think growing up is difficult and it's a process that I'm always interested in, with kids and adults, they are often on two different universes.
Growing up, nobody I knew even knew a writer. So it was a big adventure and something that I've wrestled with my whole life. I think it's a journey worth taking, really finding out who you are and what you do well.
I think I've always been aware of it with my music. I think growing up basically and having a lot to deal with and just slowing down and having something to say and something to retract from, I think I just knew that what I was doing was extremely honest.
I've been different things in different contexts, and I didn't really feel beautiful until I had my first child. I knew that I was considered 'People' magazine's Most Whatever, but all that stuff is just how we label different groups. And I've been very not beautiful in my life. There's no way I was beautiful growing up.
Growing up, I always liked so many different sounds from so many different genres - the different aspects they could bring.
I always knew I wanted to have a family because I didn't have one growing up.
Everyone else we knew growing up is the same: image of their parents, no matter how loud they told themselves they'd be different
