“My father is someone who I’m very connected to. I feel so connected to him because he has always done so much for me to make me feel happy. I remember one time, when I was nine, while I was obsessed with the minions, I told my dad that I wanted to see the minions at Universal Studios. My dad had just gotten back from work and was very tired, but he drank three five-hour energy drinks and drove me to Florida in one night, just so I could see the minions. This moment has always stuck with me because it shows how devoted my dad is to me, and I think it’s so special that he dropped everything he was doing so he could do something just for me. Even though so much has changed since I was little, my dad continues to go out of his way to do so much for me.”
