I like to have nice conversations with a man that teach me something, make me mad, make me curious. Then I find him attractive.

I believe in love, but I don't sit around waiting for it. I buy houses.

I'm taking time to figure out where I want to go and what I want to do next. In this line of work, you become so defined by your job.

I still feel like Ive crashed the party.

This [my backside] is still very, very big.

I wanted to be self-sufficient, I wanted to take care of myself, and I wanted to learn. I wanted to travel, I wanted to see the world and have my eyes opened. I wanted to be consistently challenged, and I knew I needed to be creative in some way. When I got my job in a bar and I could pay for my tuition and go on auditions and sometimes get jobs that I loved and pay my rent, I knew that I would be all right. That's when my dreams came true, long before the telephone rang and someone said, 'Come and meet Tom Cruise'".

Academics were important to my parents, as immigrants. Education is where it all begins.
