I don't know where my fascination for her stemmed from but I felt like I've grown up with this woman even if we're worlds apart (obviously), she's fun, irreverent, spontaneous and adventurous (most of which, I hardly am). But she has stayed resilient, hopeful and wide-eyed (and baby-faced). And now that we're both adults I can now relate to her more as we both continue to aspire for that optimism everyday.
