I'd heard that swimming feels so good when you're pregnant, and I love being in the ocean. I was even paddle boarding up until 17 weeks, but then my center of gravity and balance were completely off.
I can pick up any sport pretty quickly - believe me, I know how to throw a football.
I like to have curves and feel like a woman. I hope that people see that in my photos and know that healthy is better than skinny.
I'd love to design my own swim collection for them (VS)...Heidi (Klum) does the lipsticks, I would love to one day do the bikinis.
Everyone in my family is a nurse except me.
Growing up, I was always really shy about my body.
I feel my absolute best physically, mentally and spiritually when I'm surfing every day.
Well, beauty's in the eye of the beholder... It's all subjective. I'm kind of shy about it, but I'll take it.
I get a kick out of it, but it would be stupid to let it go to my head. It's modeling I didn't find the cure for cancer.
The women on that list are amazing, so to be on it for the first time and have this position is crazy. I'm not one to walk around and strut like Miss Thing, so I'm pretty humbled.
I'd say I was a tomboy... I took wood chop in high school and I was very into volleyball and football, and [was] very unaware of anything girly for a long time.
When I go home to Santa Cruz, I'm the same girl as when I grew up.
I love 'Guitar Hero' because I love music, but I have no musical ability whatsoever. So I love a game that makes you feel like you're a rock star.
I love my fans! My job would not be what it is without them.
