mother cancer thinking
I agree with cosmetic surgery for medical reasons - my mother had breast cancer and I think it's very sad when somebody has no choice in what happens to their body.
girl pretty-girl skinny
We all get old, but I always say the skinny, pretty girls will be screwed.
children stupid blame
My mum's always on at me to have children and blames 'that stupid stage thing you do' for me not already having a family.
opportunity youth blame
My mum came from nothing and didn't have many opportunities in her youth, and she blames a lot of her social inadequacies on that.
favourite milan
My favourite authors are Milan Kundera and Jeanette Winterson.
girl people quirky
It's tragic that you can define a whole movement in music by gender alone. People are like, 'Oh, look, another quirky girl.'
nice ipods clothes
I'm not that materialistic. I like nice clothes and that, but I don't spend lots of money on stuff. I'm not really into TV, I don't have an iPod, I've got a gramophone.
trying sugar rewards
I try to stick to a certain diet all the time, and then when I feel like a reward, I have it. I try to stick to no dairy, no sugar, no wheat.
long term long-term
If I get in a relationship, it's always for the long-term; if not, I don't see the point.
hate ideas bureaucracy
I really hate bureaucracy and the idea that I'm not a free person.
book going-away
I don't normally have time to read, so when I go away I like to take a few books.
feel-better dressing-up effort
Dressing up is like therapy; I feel better in myself when I've made an effort.
levels speak accents
I don't understand why the accent you speak in has to indicate what level of intellect you have.
albums want i-can
I just really want to make albums - and however I can, I will.
