Everybody struggles with being an oddball. It's tough trying to fit in when you're a kid; then you become an adult and you think, 'I'm just going to be myself and either they accept it or they don't.' But you know what? I like me, and that's the most important thing.		107

Yes, I'm obsessed with health, which has been an interesting journey. I went down the raw-food diet route, but got ill.
