gave
me
the
gift
and
gave
me
her
blessing
to
do
what
I
want
with
my
life.
To
be
like,
'Okay
...
you're
going
to
do
this
and
we're
going
to
prove
them
all
wrong'
rather
than,

still
educated,
I've
still
got
everything
I
need
in
life,

thank
her
every
single
day," she

first
thing
she
did
was
chatting
with
her
mother
about
her
work
and
success.
"I
found
out
in
the
best
way.
I
was
away
from
her
last
week,
and
I
speak
to
her
every
day
-
so
I
FaceTimed
her
...
and
a
little
notification
from
Twitter
came
up
-
a
tweet
from
'Game
of
Thrones'," she
added.
She
also
added
that,
when
she
came
to
know
about
her
selection
for
the
Emmy,
she
was
speechless
for
30
seconds,
while
her
mother
was
screaming
and
shouting
with
joy.
