I\u2019ve realized through the years I try to fit in for the people who get noticed. But half of the noticed people aren\u2019t even cute, and all the unnoticed people look better than them.

And the eighth-grade boys like to go around cursing and disrespecting teachers. And I know that half of you in this room are insecure, and the other half makes them insecure. But guess what? You\u2019re beautiful, amazing, smart, and talented. And you don\u2019t need nobody to tell you otherwise. From your’s truly, Roxane.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
