We're in an environment where everyone gets compartmentalized very quickly.
I grew up in a mostly Buddhist environment.
I'm so flattered and touched by your comments.
I found it a very uninteresting way to spend time.
I've been so cool for so long, the split was excruciating.
Somebody stop me from beeping. Or do you want to see what I'll do next?
There's an active movement to turn it into a badge of honor,
Everyone constantly taunts you that rebound relationships aren't a good idea and that they don't work. But mine is working, surprisingly. It's lovely to have a man in my life who's cute, intelligent, interesting and complicated, and very supportive.
And also I think particularly as a female, you're taught to be defensive your whole life. You're taught not to be aggressive.
Fun wouldn't be the right word... it was the most difficult, challenging, physical, extraordinary stretch I've ever had to make, in all those wild regards.
Buddhism has had a major effect on who I am and how I think about the world. What I have learned is that I like all religions, but only parts of them.
It is technically a failure when you don't try.
I'd like to classify my life as a romantic comedy. Unfortunately I feel it's probably more like a TV reality show.
I would love to do something like Austin Powers to show off my comic timing.
