I Wasn't Into Fairytales When I Was

I Like Everything. Boyish Girls, Girlish Boys, The Heavy And The Skinny. Which Is A Problem When I'm Walking Down The Street.

I Suppose I'm Very Aware Of Time And Of Memories And Of Enjoying Life... Not Just Doing The Right Thing And Being A Useful Person, Which I Certainly Wanna Be And Believe That I Am. I Hold Onto My Family Really Tight And Try To Be As Good A Woman As I Can Be In My Life.

To Be Put Simply Refugees Are Us. And Their Mothers Are Like Us, They Love Their Children The Same, They Laugh, They Dream, And They Are Survivors, They Are Amazing.

In The Films I've Done Recently, I've Been Learning A Little More About The Side Of Myself That Enjoys Being A Light. I Remember When I Used To Dress In All Black And You'd Say. "just Be Pretty, Hold Your Head Up, Be Proud. Be A Pleasant Person And Don't Cover Yourself So Much With Darkness, Your Need To Be A Little Crazy." Now I Have Nothing Against Anything I've Been In Before, Because I Love All Sides Of Me, But I Have Been Experimenting More With That Lovely Woman Side. In This Age Of Feminism, I Would Hate For The Whole Gentlemen And Ladies Things To Be Lost.

I'm Hopeful That Increased Awareness Of The Issues In Africa Will Bring About A New Wave Of Progress And Activism Among Young People Everywhere.
