I don't know, I like to go on really different types of dates. Going someplace new or some new part of the city, something that's not your average thing. Something where you just go have an adventure together.
I guess I was a floater, but not really. I don't know. I didn't get high school.
I guess you have to be really open to your acting partners and believe in the story.
I have a certain curiosity for life that drives me and propels me forward.
I once made a - it was supposed to be a 30 minute - bean salad that took me like 6 hours.
I want to work with great directors and try not to put too much pressure on myself and just read things for the story and recognize when I'm drawn to something for the right reasons and try to maintain some sanity.
I'm waiting for them to make 'Thundercats'. I would love to be Cheetara.
I've discovered as I've grown up that life is far more complicated than you think it is when you're a kid. It isn't just a straightforward fairytale.
I've sort of heard that "it" girl thing, but not really. Hearing it from a few people doesn't solidify it in my mind and I wouldn't know how to solidify that title. It's so elusive and what does it mean, I don't know?
If I hurt someone, if I were to accidentally poke someone's eye out, I would laugh. And then I'd say, 'I'm sorry, I really do feel bad,' but then I'm on the floor rolling.
You know when you find a great dress, you've gotta hold on to it.
