I Try To Just Pay Attention To

How I Was Raised Was, There Were No Rules - Nothing Like That. If I Wanted To Take A Drug Because I Was In School And Everybody Was Doing It, I Could Go To My Parents And Say, "i Really Want To Try This." And They'd Say, "if You Do This, O.k., But This Is What Can Happen To You..." They'd Say, "don't Get It In The Streets, Because It Could Be Really Bad And Make You Freak Out. Don't Take It In A Crowded Place, Because You'll Panic."

My Problems Seemed So Glamorous To Other People, And Everyone Just Thought I Was So Lucky. But Then, I Was Lucky Because My Family Was Really There For Me. I Think I Just Felt Like I Really Wanted To Hold On To Who I Was As A Person, And Try To Have As Much Of A Normal Life As I Could.

I'm Too Young To Play Lawyers. But I've Been Really Lucky Because I Never Got Labeled. I Never Did The John Hughes Thing. I Did Adult Movies. I'm Not Bragging Or Anything, But I Think That I've Chosen Really Good Roles. I've Played Different People And Showed That I Have A Little Bit Of Range.

I Often Get Offered Things That Are So Similar To Things That I Have Done, And Life Is Too Short. When You Make A Film Or A Show, As You Get Older, That's A Lot Of Time To Be Doing Something That You're Not Absolutely Invested In Or In Love With.

I Don't Have Anything Left To Offer In The Teen-angst Area. I've Done It Every Way I Know How.
