- At the end of the day, you should take every opportunity that comes your way.

- Unless the radio is on, I am usually listening to stuff that is very different to what I do.
- I think when people see that you are shy, or even just calm, collected and reserved, they think you can be pushed around, made to do everything they want - but that's definitely not true of me. The people closest to me know that's not the case. They know I'm not a pushover.
- I'm quite curvy and I just try and exercise whenever I can. I don't do anything hardcore as I'm just not that dedicated.
