If I deny myself something, I just get resentful, so what's the point?

If I deny myself something, I just get resentful, so what's the point?

I balance things better and don't kill myself so much, but conflict makes me a more interesting actress to watch. The places I go to to pull emotions from, I think if you have a perfect, happy life, you just don't have those places. And I want those places. I'm proud of those places.

I'm not ready to be a woman yet, I'd like it if my body were more boyish. Maybe I'll like my curves when I'm older but right now they kind of make me squirm.

My family didn't have any money growing up. I'm just a girl from the ghetto; from Indio, California.

Acting probably saved my life. It gave me a home and a safe place to let out all of my emotions and have it be okay.
