Show Quotes:

"You're like, oh, I need to clean these. And then you put your makeup on. And then you put your brushes away and your makeup away. And then the next day, when you come back to put on your makeup, you're like, oh yeah, I forgot. I need to clean these. And then the cycle just repeats. It's this awful cycle."

"I was ambitious and be like, we're going to be ready in six months. And they're like, you're not going to be ready at all."
