Most of my friends all tend to work in restaurants part time, doing acting classes on the side.

I always wear bronzer because I love the way my skin looks when it's tan.
I think that makeup can be challenging, especially when you are younger.
One way to stay grounded in the entertainment industry is to surround yourself with very good people that will constantly remind you how uncool you are.
I'm sure a lot of people don't take me seriously.
Like most people, I used to wear clothing off the rack. But having them fitted to me makes a really big difference, especially with pieces like a cocktail dress. Little nips and tucks can take 10 pounds off you.
Imperfection is relatable.
I think a good friend, to me, is all about trust and loyalty. You don't ever want to second-guess whether you can tell your friend something.
I think it's definitely important to look like yourself on a date. You don't want to look like someone else with too much makeup or too much hair.
I go into meetings, and people have this preconceived notion of me that I didn't work hard to get where I am.
I think that like most girls in high school, I just mirrored what was around me.
I mean, it's fun to go out and do stuff in Hollywood, but if it was gone tomorrow, I really wouldn't be disappointed.
One of my biggest goals, especially with writing YA novels, is just to have people enjoy reading.
I read a lot of 'Spark Notes' in high school.
I'm comfortable in front of the camera, but I can't act.
Dating in Los Angeles can be hard, which makes it all the better when you meet a really nice guy.
I love wearing designer pieces with something I found at Target.
If you're on the cover of any magazine, you certainly get recognized more.
I think when you're put into a completely different situation and environment, you really see who you are. You're not affected by what's around you. You are who you are.
When you're writing a book, you don't want it to be overly trendy because you want people to enjoy it for years and refer back to it.
I try really hard to separate myself from other celebrity brands.
A lot of people in fashion don't want to be linked with anything that has to do with reality TV.
I'd love to design bridal dresses.
I'm a writer slash designer slash TV personality.
In high school I spent most of my time in jeans and T-shirts or Juicy sweats. We're such a laid-back town. I mean, people wore bikinis under their clothes half the time, so you didn't really get dressed up to go to school.
Dates are always hard. You don't want to be too dressed up or too casual.
I do most of my shopping online. It's just convenient for me.
I love anything really feminine. I love any sort of girly detail - anything with a bow or a heart on it, I'm immediately in love with.
Some people are willing to betray years of friendship just to get a little bit of the spotlight.
I can sleep anywhere. I'm like an infant.
I'm obsessed with the 1920s, everything from the style to the lifestyle. It was a really cool era.
I don't call magazines and let them know about things so they can write stories.
I'm my happiest when I'm really busy. I love feeling like I need one more hour of sleep, or when I'm running around frazzled!
There's not one person that I say I want to look like.
I like wearing scarves in my hair because they make me look put together without taking a lot of time.
I think that it's really nice to learn that makeup is different for every person. Everyone has a different feature on their face that they like to show off.
When you are working really hard and you're really focused on your career, a lot of other things suffer.
No one eats pretty.
I never wanted to end up in entertainment; that wasn't the goal.
I try to never look back at how I dressed in the first few seasons of 'Laguna Beach' because it was pretty bad... head-to-toe bad.
The normal 21-year-old doesn't have to worry about their night out being put on TMZ.
Everyone has that friend who's every day, like, 'I hate my nose, I hate my nose, I hate my nose.' You either need to come to peace with it and be like, alright, I hate it, but it's part of me - or change it. So I'm not against plastic surgery, I'm against plastic surgery when it doesn't really need to be done.
You should never need a guy to make you feel complete.
I've always been a big fan of Phillip Lim. He'll always be a favorite of mine.
I don't kiss on the first date. My friends always make fun of me for that! But I will hold hands.
I don't stage my own publicity.
I love Chelsea Handler.
I definitely aspire to be someone like Tyra Banks, who's created an empire for herself.
I'm not old-fashioned when it comes to dating, but there's something nice about a guy pulling out a girl's chair and opening the door for her, even if it's just in the beginning.
There's not a business or a master plan as far as I'm concerned. I take it week by week, and I don't think you ever expect to be able to do the next thing.
