| Quotes: |
Sometimes you just have to chop a zombie like a melon. What can I say?
<br />
<hr>
See my family, that is the most important. Otherwise, anything that involves bicycles, peaceful venues or the big wide open.
<br />
<hr>
I don't recall ever deciding to pursue a career in acting.
<br />
<hr>
I have a very weak stomach for horror. I need curtains on the front windows of my house because that heightens the whole fear factor.
<br />
<hr>
I really miss doing stage though, I really do. I actually prefer that, hands down to anything else and I can do it in bits and pieces but it's not that easy to commit to a play. Life's much easier if you can get work in TV or film so I don't know. I'll have a summer hiatus so maybe that's when I can do it. |
