I don't know if there is someone for everyone. Every person is so different and I don't think there is an exact match for every person. If you meet someone and they have 20 of the 25 things you want in a person, then you're pretty lucky.

I love people who have goals. Somebody who's passionate about life and does their own thing.
I've worked really hard to get to where I am. Slow and steady wins the race, and I believe in paying your dues.
I have actor friends, but they're not famous. I feel like if you're an actor or - famous, you have to overly prove that you're a normal, cool person.
It's really interesting with scripts, because you never really know. It's paper and it could be great or awful. Even scripts that are good could end up not working.
I remember people saying that they brought cousins or people to the set and they had no idea that was me. So, that was really cool. I was proud that we fooled people.
I like the dress-up part. In real life, I'm into sweats and never like that, but I do like to get dressed up - like most girls.
I'm the type of person who believes that everything happens for a reason and at the time that it's supposed to.
I know who I am supposed to be with. I'm just waiting until the time is right. I know what i want. I want to be so sure of everything in my life and be so good on my own that someone just comes in to compliment it. I want somebody who is happy. I don't want to meet someone who needs me. I want someone who is good on his own.
I definitely want to go to college, but I can't make any major decisions right now, ... When I'm at that point, I'll just see how I'm doing. If I have a couple of movies lined up, then I'll put it off a few months. People go to college to figure out what they want to do, and it seems silly to turn down work, for me, at least.
Everybody wants to be liked, fit in and make people laugh. I think we're not that different.
They realize that we're poking fun at the stereotype, ... I've talked with several British people and interviewers, and they all had a really positive take on the movie. I think that they're confident enough in themselves. Everybody seems to be enjoying it.
I think that the most important lesson is to be yourself, and that you can't change yourself for anyone else, ... I think a lot of girls try to do that for their boyfriends or their parents, so that's a strong message in this film.
