She explained that there are many good things, like being able to travel and meet new people all the time. “I didnt use to be popular in school, bu t now I get tons of attention everywhere I go.” (68)However, too much attention can also be a bad thing. “I always have to worry about how I appear to others and I have to be very careful about what I say or do. And I dont have much private time anymore.
