"I have an older brother who is 21 and attends UC Berkley."

"It's fun working on the set... I usually work about 10 and a half hours a day, and I also study about five of those hours. It can be tiring, but it's fun!"

"My dad heard of a studio on the radio, and it was advertised as a place for kids to meet kids, and it was actually a studio, and that's where I met my manager and agent."

"I've definitely grown apart from a lot of my friends. Some of them don't understand the schedule, and it's not that I don't want to talk to them, it's that sometimes I am really busy and can't get back to them."

"I don't think it's true that blondes have more fun... Trust me, it is not true!"

"It's not the most normal life in the world, but I screw up plenty of times to be a normal teenager."

"I definitely hope to attend UCLA in a year, and major in business."

"It is difficult because the school I go to, my friends do not attend."

"Teens are dealing with the same problems now in the '90s as they did back in the '70s, the only real difference is the clothes we wear!"

"My mom and my dad wanted my brother and I to have a better life, you know, better education, better jobs. It was probably harder, much, much harder, for my parents. When you're a kid, you can learn a language much more easily; I learned English in less than a year."

"I love swimming, tennis, and I am taking up golf. I am not serious about it, I just go to the range and practice. Other than that, I enjoy going to the movies and hanging out with my friends."

"My goal in life is to enjoy what I do, and never to look back and say I wish I would have done that, and to go to UCLA, and to become someone great in life!"
