Two must-haves for me are a great book and my iPod.

Like every other girl in the world, my most embarrassing moment had to do with a guy completely turning me down. His loss!

My experiences remind me that it's those black clouds that make the blue skies even more beautiful.

I'm very friendly or whatever, but I would hardly say that I'm that cookie-cutter. I don't live in L.A. or New York. I live in Texas, and I go to hole-in-the-wall bars, so there's no paparazzi there.

I never said I was a 'good girl.' I'm not a bad girl.

People keep asking me if I am having more fun, being blonde, but I always have fun! Whether I'm blonde, redhead, or brunette! I always have fun.

I'm a hygiene freak. I'm like obsessive-compulsive when it comes to washing your hands.

Honestly, I just think we all have special gifts, everyone. You know, obviously, some are more noticeable than others and that's why there's the limelight. Everybody's in it.

Okay, maybe this was the meant to be: the universe I knew, loved nothing more than balance.

You must believe you have limitless potential in order to manifest your genius fully. Tell yourself every day, "I am a genius," and believe it.

Yes, I'm reckless and sometime express no concern for my own well being, and I express a misanthropic view of the world, but to have an opinion, you can't be a nihilist.
