The ocean is 20 minutes away. Nature surrounds me 24/7. I wake up to the sounds of birds chirping. I also love that I can go out to dinner in jeans and flip-flops.

Also, when you think about a show that you used to watch as a kid or as a teenager, you look at it through sort of rose colored glasses when you remember it.

I think escapism is really important.

I meditate, which I really like. Just 20 minutes twice a day and that really helps.

Even now that I'm married and 28, my room's still intact the way it was when I went to high school.

I had to take driving lessons in New York, which were really weird because it's not the safest thing in the world.

When you're doing a movie, you're in and out of there in three months. If you hated the experience, it's all good because you can take the paycheck and leave. But, on a television show, you have to love your character and you have to love the experience because you could be there for awhile, fingers crossed.
