awkward definitely
I think everyone has their awkward phases. Growing up isn't easy for everyone. I definitely had my awkward moments.
playing
When I was a little girl, I loved theater a lot and I was always playing and making my own worlds.
I'm more of a Smithwick's or Bulmer's girl than a pint of Guinness.
amazing complete fun guy kitchen terrible
I'm a complete foodie, but I'm a terrible cook. If a guy can get me in the kitchen and we actually have fun cooking, that's amazing.
both modeling tried until
I was real into theater, and then I tried soccer, acting and ballet. Both my parents didn't want a child-star model, so I didn't get into modeling until I was 14.
people
Nudity isn't something people should take offense to.
bit fan
I'm a big fan of the Irish accent. After a couple of drinks, I start to get a bit of an Irish lilt, too.
believe enjoy good
I think I had really good parents. I got really lucky. They said, 'You're a woman; enjoy yourself and believe that you can do things.'
absolutely beautiful both buy coast love places romantic since spent strong summer ties west
I absolutely love Ireland. It's one of the most beautiful places on Earth, and I have strong ties here. Both my grandmothers are from Ireland, and I have spent every summer in Bantry since my father, who is an artist, had the romantic idea 20 years ago to buy an old farmhouse on the west coast and renovate it.
school high-school hometown
I was born in London and lived there until I was five. We traveled a lot. But really San Diego is my hometown. It's where I went to high school.
world social-media boring
I'm a young woman who lives in a world of social media; I'll post boring things too!
stupid guy
A woman talks about having sex, and it's like, well, a guy got to have sex with you, so you're stupid. You've given something up.
problem sexuality comment
When I post a selfie and someone comments, 'Oh, sure, go ahead and reclaim your sexuality, I got my rocks off,' that's not my problem.
attention
A woman can be seeking attention and also make a statement.They don't need to be mutually exclusive.
