I think regular school is harder than my job. You have to deal with kids picking on you, and you wanting to look good and all this stuff. It was way too much pressure.

You reflect on the people who used to be in your life, and it's like, 'Wow, I can't believe that person was ever really in my life.' But people are put into your life for seasons, for different reasons, and to teach you lessons.

These past years have been really transitional for me in every aspect - personally, emotionally and professionally. I was excited and nervous and anxious because I literally had nothing to fall back on. This is my own thing, it's all me. I spent a year working on the record and really wanted to spend time on what it was going to represent and how it was going to represent me in this time in my life.

People tell me what to do every single day. They think I'm boring. I'm Disney kid. So, there's that.

I want someone honest, someone who's very sweet to my family and friends, and polite to the other people around me.

I'd much rather be the oddball out than kind of create something of myself that I'm not proud of.

You kind of can't help who you'll fall in love with. I'd date someone who isn't in the business in a heartbeat.
