Some part of my soul is always gonna be following Hanson, I guess. It's like how when you watch a movie or visit a place you remember from your childhood- you sink into that familiar groove. It's easy to sink into the routine of following Hanson. I guess that's why I did it.

It takes bravery to be your own person. It takes confidence, it takes guts, and it takes a healthy dose of ignorance about the way the world works. But that's how we learn.

Doing dumb stuff is a part of being a kid, I think. But in order for it to count, it's gotta be your own dumb stuff.

That's why I gotta go my own way. I can't keep doing Hanson's dumb stuff- it's gotta be my own.

I couldn't before- I was too afraid. But I have a little bit of confidence now.

And now I know that confidence looks good on everyone.
