Awkward moment Quote by Kaitlen Dearing
“One of the things that keeps me going, is probably the fact that I don't care about embarrassing myself in front of people. I do it all the time and I'm just like, 'whatever.' Because the people that actually matter and are important to me in my life, are the ones that accept my awkwardness and love me for it and just ignore my moments of idiocy. People that mind don't matter, and people that matter don't mind.”
