nice pull season together
It was nice to pull together and do it. We didn't want our season to end. It was just unbelievable.
came class
They came in my class and told me (I won).
running fun party
For cardio, I do SoulCycle. I really dont like to run, plus I have terrible knees and get bored on the elliptical. SoulCycle is basically a dance party on a bicycle, and you burn calories, and its so fun.
simple jeans everyday
I'm drawn to what I'm drawn to. I wear jeans and loafers everyday, mostly casual, but when I really turn it on, I like a classic, simple look.
girl fall yale
I auditioned for 'Girls' the fall after I graduated from Yale. The show has been amazing - as close to perfect as it gets!
love compliments-you giving
I love making people uncomfortable, and when people say, 'I cringed watching [that] scene,' that's the biggest compliment you can give me.
running smart past
I don't understand how some of these young actresses are wearing such provocative, editorial items, when they haven't even established a career yet. It's hard to see past that. I'm not so sure that's smart in the long run.
people asking worst
I operate with this sense of needing to live up to what I am asking of people. I am, by far, my own worst critic.
thinking self looks
We live in the Facebook era. I think everyone, not just celebrities, have an unprecedented level of self-awareness, of presenting yourself to the world. The truth is, it starts with how you look, and that goes into how you dress.
clothes breeze
I would prefer to keep my clothes on. Unless there's a brisk breeze or something, I tend to keep them on.
jobs school done
I've done so many funny jobs. I worked at a farmer's market through high school. I worked in the stock room of Ralph Lauren. I graduated to salesperson at Ralph Lauren, which was a big deal to me. I've been a P.A. I've been a stand-in. I've been an assistant's assistant.
laughing nerd safe
It's safe to say I'm a comedy nerd. I listen to so many podcasts. I just love to laugh.
thinking people important
I just have always been so interested in the way actors and actresses present themselves to the world because I think it is very important and it affects the way people see you as an actor.
dad thinking pbs
My dad keeps joking about sneaking into my grandparents' house and switching out their HBO for PBS so they think I'm on 'Downton Abbey.
