Voiceover

"The rest of your life is a long time, and whether you know it or not, it's being shaped right now. You can choose to blame your cirumstances on fate, or bad luck, or bad choices or you can fight back. Things aren't always going to be fair in the real world, that's just the way it is. But for the most part you get what you give. Let me ask you all a question. What's worse. Not getting everything you wished for or getting it and finding out it's not enough. The rest of your life is being shaped right now with the dreams you chase, the choices you make and the person you decide to be. The rest of your life is a long time and the rest of your life starts right now."
- Haley James Scott (closing voiceover)
