school kids thinking
I think a lot of young kids at school are very conscious of trying to keep credibility in case they kind of stand out in a crowd and get bullied by trying to stay cool and stuff. And my whole thing, all the way through school, was I was just a goof... I didn't care.
country travel kids
I've always traveled, as a kid my parents moved me around, a different place in Germany every four years. But I got the travel bug when I was a kid, living in different countries.
kids thinking flip
I could always flip between emotions and be available to suddenly do something new. I think it's a part of playing, and you hang onto it when you're a kid.
girl growing-up kids
No one ever told me when I was growing up that make-up and skirts were just for girls. If you're confident and you own it, [the other kids] are fine with it...I've always supported the lifestyle that I will do what I please and deal with it.
kids animal two
If you look at little kids and wild animals, these are two groups of things that whenever I'm with them forces me to be in the moment.
cheeky kid practical
I was kind of like the cheeky kid in school. Nothing too malicious... Nothing too nasty... I never really got into too many fights, but I was the practical joker.
business concern degree either major minor motivated
Probably a concern to either a major or minor degree with most actors if they're really motivated to kind of make a significant difference in the business is the 'pigeon-holing' thing.
extending imagination
Being an actor's about imagination and you have to keep extending your imagination.
people remembered
I would like to be remembered as someone who could make people laugh. I would just like to be remembered really.
again applied cold days drives freezing glue hours miss sitting stand trailer work
I won't miss having to stand for two hours at 4:30 a.m. and having freezing cold glue applied to my feet. I won't miss two-hour drives to work or long, long, long, days sitting in my trailer waiting... waiting... waiting. I won't miss glue in my ears. But I would do it all again tomorrow.
beach blowing drove experience fell felt home incredible life papers piece sat seemed taking until watched woke wrote
Went to the beach for the day and wrote as much as I could about this incredible experience and where my life seemed to be taking me, etc. I fell asleep, and when I woke up the papers were blowing down the beach and into the water. I sat up and watched until I couldn't see one piece of paper left. I drove home and felt happy.
ate broke cake felt oven raw tried watched
Went home, tried to make cake, but the oven broke so I ate raw cake mix, watched TV, felt sick, and went to Billy's.
black street widow
Here's an interesting thing about L.A. - it's overrun with black widow spiders. I could find you one on the street in 10 minutes.
artistic believe crushes
I don't believe in underwear. I think it crushes your artistic integrity.
