| Quotes: |
I was a part of that Beanie Babies generation. I had, like, 400 of them... OK, maybe not that many, but I had a lot of little stuffed animals that I liked to make talk. I was a big dork, and I still am.
<br />
<hr>
Hair on a guy is something that attracts me first; if you've got a good head of hair, and you're able to style yourself in a way that's presentable, I think that's really important.
<br />
<hr>
I was raised by boys. I can hold my own, I can fight, and I love horror movies - simply for the scare factor and the surrealism.
<br />
<hr>
If you watch 90210 (2008), you see my hair changing every episode - I've chopped it off, and I've kept it long. I've done it all to my hair on that show.
<br />
<hr>
I'm just a huge fan of smells, first of all. I have a bit of an obsession with smells. |
