I kind of have a happy magnet. I can't stand being depressed, so I work my ass off to get out of it as soon as possible.

It's all kind of a big illusion: the white picket fence and the perfect marriage and the kids. Check that box off, check that box off, and move forward.

Being out at work in L.A. is the nicest place to be. You don't get depressed because of the sun shining every day. I love it there.

It's an amazing luxury to say I'm 31 years old and I'm gonna take a year off. That's pretty amazing.

I didn't get hugely famous really quick. It was a slow, gradual process, so I was able to sort of grow into myself and figure out who I was and what I wanted without the glaring spotlight on me telling me who I was.

I kind of like being depressed.
