Simple pero engrande (Simple yet grand). I saw so many things that I wouldn’t see here. I watched plays, full-on productions.
At the end of the day, I stayed so true to myself. And the person that I am, intrinsically, I guess, is also interesting pala to other people - I just had to wait it out.
This freedom of fixing my own schedule; of saying, 'No, I'm not going to work today, I'm going to go to the park.
