    I was in 3rd grade when I fell in love with hockey. I followed my father's and brother's footsteps and played ice hockey. It turned out to be a failure. I was too little compared to those big boys.

    It was right before I went into 8th grade that I decided to give up piano and move on. I thought that playing an instrument made me look like a "geek". My new hobby ended up being cheerleading. I cheerleaded at Star Bound for 2 years.
