want take-time it-takes-time
It takes time to be who you really want to be. It doesn't happen overnight.
girl games long
It usually takes an ethnic girl - I'm not saying black, I'm saying ethnic, let's make that clear - twice as long. We've gotta work extra-hard to stay in the game and stay with the girls who do well but aren't ethnic.
halloween years dresses
I used to dress up as a model for Halloween, like every year.
couple years glamorous
In a couple of years, I'll be the most glamorous woman, hopefully.
eye praying breathe
I don't like to fly. What's it called when the plane shakes? Turbulence, takeoffs... I grab my chair, close my eyes, count to 30, breathe, and pray.
break-out lasts faces
I don't get facials. The last time I got a facial was when I first started modeling when I was 15 or 16. It made my face completely break out.
weight-lifting drink protein
I drink a lot of protein shakes and do a lot of weight lifting.
party work-out yeah
I'm really focused when I'm working out, so I don't really listen to music. I like to listen to music after, because it's like, 'Yeah! I finished! Let's party!
bed wake-up mood
Music is everything to me. I wake up and go to bed with it. I listen to all genres, depending on my mood.
african-american looks proud
Mostly I'm proud to be an African-American woman, but I'm glad I have a universal look as well.
jobs men thinking
Let me say this: I think men are a full-time job, and I'm young and I already have one job. I'm just focused on my career.
dream thinking want
I'm thinking of slowing down on modeling and branching out to other things. I want to pursue some new and old dreams and start making them happen.
natural products
I'm really into natural and organic products.
hate people gains
I'm just really tiny. People hate me, because I just sit. I'm eating, I'm eating, I'm eating and then I just... sit. And I don't gain a thing.
