i'm not really sure. it's something that i've done as long as i can remember. it came really naturally to me when i was a bb, then as a teenager people started telling me i wasn't half-bad at it, and in college i was directed to the CW program and told to stop wasting my time in sociology and sit down, be serious, and do it, because i could make it happen. it's all i've ever known i wanted to do, really.
