When you're in an industry where you're forced to grow up so quickly, part of you never grows up, and that's a good thing.

Don't be afraid of your own power.

To love is a brave thing. To be loved, braver still. But allowing yourself to love yourself? That takes the most courage of all.

Before the whole Disney realm had undergone this huge revamping, as a kid, I always saw myself doing these dramatic indie parts. And then I fell in love with doing comedy and doing kid shows and really working for kids.

I never wash my hair the night before an event - I call it second day hair, and it holds better. Also, the day before, test run your makeup and watch it every couple of hours (see if your mascara is bleeding, or if your lip gloss runs out really quickly). Oh, and for me, shoe-wise, platforms give me the same height that I need, but they're not as taxing on my feet.

The easiest way to not believe your own hype is to not know what people are saying about you.

Everyday's a battle against; everyday's a fight for. Everyday is collaged with shadows cast in everyday's sunrise. Everyday is a new chance.
