All my mom's side speaks Spanish. I speak to my grandparents in Spanish. Slowly. And they're patient with me! But I do speak with them in Spanish and carry on conversations with them.
It's the boring things that mean a lot to me. I enjoy taking my sisters to eat. Or sitting watching TV with my family.
I want to figure out what kind of artist I want to be, because with the 'American Idol' process, it just works really fast. The night of the finale, they said, 'OK, here are all the label people that you're gonna work with, this is the album you're gonna make and blah, blah, blah.' So it was a pretty fast process, but it's been cool.
There's a lot of really talented people in Utah, people who would really make an effort to make the music the best that it could be and as emotional as it could be.
It's fun just spending time with everyone. It's something that's so simple, yet so valuable to me
I think the best way people can connect to you is by being real
I like to believe that you don't need to reach a certain goal to be happy. I prefer to think that happiness is always there, and that when things don't go the way we might like them to, it's a sign from above that something even better is right around the corner.
Its cool when people notice that you make an effort to live certain values.
