I chose to take a break, which I’m still on. I’ve been the subject of many 'where are they now?' articles and musings. Well, I’m here now, writing this.

Se per te l’amore è quello che manca e non quello che resta; se sei capace di mangiare otto gelati Cucciolone così velocemente da non riuscire nemmeno a leggere le barzellette disegnate sopra il biscotto; se nella vita non sei un fuoriclasse ma un fuoricoda; se per staccare dal mondo hai bisogno di ipnotizzarti davanti alla Prova del Cuoco; se tra tutto quello che hai nel tuo armadio scegli sempre lo stesso pantalone da almeno cinque anni; se sei un maniaco dell’igiene specialmente di quella del bagno. Se dentro di te c’è Lei; se trovi che Elettra sia un bel nome a cui dare la colpa di tutto.

Avan Jogia grew up as a teen idol. He stumbled into the spotlight during the birth of the internet, the early days of Instagram and Twitter, before everyone online was a star.
