| Quote | |
|---|---|
| 1 | Prom was awesome. I had such a great time at prom. |
| 2 | High school was so much fun, and it wasn’t a wreck at all. |
| 3 | Surfing is so much work. It’s one of those things that I just love, but it’s so hard. |
| 4 | Surfing is something I just crave. |
| 5 | When I was younger, I didn’t want to be on TV. |
| 6 | When I’m at home or at school, I’m casual and comfortable. I tend to wear work out clothes and lots of sweaters. |
| 7 | When you’re a kid, you have these big ideas and these big dreams to make a change, or maybe you feel like you can’t make a difference. |
| 8 | Everyone always says that guys are intimidated by me, but I seriously doubt it. I mean, I’m five-foot-nothing! |
| 9 | I think I was made to live in New York. I love it. |
| 10 | I think you can go to school at any age. |
| 11 | If you act weird, people are going to treat you weird, but if you’re just yourself, people respond to that. |
| 12 | [on filming in a small town] Well, I’m kind of an urban girl. I like big cities. I like New York. I like London. I like L.A. I like people. I get lonely, really, really easily. But I think it was good. It was very different and I think that’s good. |
| 13 | [on what she learned from filming her first movie] Well, Wayne Wang, the director, really helped me become a more mature actress. When I first started filming, I was really over the top. He just helped bring me down and make me real. That was really wonderful, a really wonderful experience. Also, what I learned about filming is it takes forever. I mean, there are so many different angles and shots. I mean, it just takes forever. |
