age entire good great guess kids lives number personal school
Just as we have had great working lives, we have also had good personal lives. For instance, we have made school our number one priority. We have been in school our entire lives with kids our own age. We guess that's pretty regular.
school tests nervous
I am a really bad test taker. I can get straight As in school, but I get nervous on test.
school decision acting
I made the decision to take acting seriously after high school.
school cooking one-day
I want to go to culinary school because I love cooking. One day I'd love to open up a restaurant or cafe
soccer team school
We played soccer a lot with our friends and at school. We weren't on an official team or anything, but we'd definitely be up for it in gym or in after-school pickup games where we live.
movies shop
I usually do get the tomboy parts in the movies, which is kind of like me, but not totally. I like to shop as much as Ashley, but she is a little more of a girlie-girl than me.
asking came challenged enjoyed given sort understand
I was never challenged when it came to acting as a youngster. I sort of just did whatever was given to me without asking questions. I didn't really understand why I enjoyed it or why I did it.
great
I still read scripts, and if something great comes along, that's great... but this is my day job. The Row is where I go every day.
drive explore grew horseback stores until
I grew up horseback riding. That was my passion. I didn't start shopping until about 16 or 17, when I could drive myself to stores and explore on my own.
bag bags bigger carry huge looks space throw woman
I feel like when I carry a bigger bag, it looks like it's a huge bag because I'm really tiny. But I do think it's important to have the space that you need, because we throw everything in our bags at all times. I think every woman does.
We've read scripts, and I think right now we are just focusing in on school.
business
We will probably always be in business together.
fit understood
When I was young, clothes were really just about what fit, because Ashley and I were so tiny. So I understood fit before I understood style.
physically roles
We did many of our own stunts. We had our hands full. In fact, the roles were physically demanding.
