I go into work and get my hair and makeup done, go into wardrobe. I have to do three hours of school a day.

I'm not a huge TV person, but when I do watch, it's always after the fact because I like to binge watch.

The words are ludicrous at times, but you add the reality to it and that gives it the balance it has
reading dark musical
I've been reading scripts where they've been doing a lot of singing now, but within the dark, realistic story line. I would love, love, love, love to do that. But not a musical on Broadway, I don't have that kind of energy or stamina.

You get a kind of familiarity on a set when you're on a TV show.

Acting is a very strange industry in that it flows in these weird ways, I'll be so busy for 6 months and then nothing for a couple months, so it's hard for me to focus and stuff.
physically
I think for a girl to be strong, it doesn't have to involve being physically strong.

Mitch Hurwitz was like a father figure to me. He was so sweet, and he's just so smart.

If you want to do something, then you do it. If you don't want to do something, don't just do it because your friends are doing it, or because all the popular kids are doing it.
