But America was built by optimists. Optimists like my friend Amanda, who recently started a small business.

The owner wrote back.

In my family, there was one cardinal priority - education. College was not an option it was mandatory. So even though we didn’t have a lot of money, we made it work. I signed up for financial aid, Pell Grants, work study, anything I could.

Meeting people is difficult, period. LA is a difficult place to meet people anyway, and Hollywood is such a small community.
