This crazy little party girl who loves to enjoy life actually has a purpose. So, that's really the core of why I've survived so many years and I can go and I can fall down and I can get back up. Why?

My favorite question is 'Why?' I think it can be really helpful - I also think it can be annoying to people at times; I'll admit that.
