Every year I tell myself that I'm not going to read any reviews and then I do. We're all human and when I read something negative it hurts.

I was going to be a concert pianist, and when I was in high school, my parents were scared to death that I would focus too much on that too soon. And that I'd end up in some sort of dead end, and not fulfilling whatever potential they thought I had. ↗
