“My passion is doing movies, and as long as I keep doing that, I’ll be happy. I want to do movies, fun roles and dramatic ones. I love all of it.”

Exercise is amazing, from the inside out. I feel so alive and have more energy.

I don’t like being stagnant. I want to continue to grow and just be better at what I do, and the only way to do that is to keep stepping outside of your comfort zone.

Ghost stories really scare me. I have such a big imagination that after I watch a horror movie like ‘The Grudge’, I look in the corners of my room for the next two days.

I’m becoming more adventurous.

My passion is doing movies, so as long as I keep doing that I will be happy.

I get to go to all these beautiful places, so it’s nice being able to take pictures of it.

I’m not good with catty girls. I’m too laid-back.

I have three closets in my bedroom.

Long-distance relationships are hard no matter what. When you don’t have face-to-face time, it’s just different.

That’s actually how my parents met. They were pen pals. My mom was in the Philippines and my father was in the States, and they wrote to each other. He went out to meet her, and they wed not too long after.

I try to live my life, do what I want, and just let everything else follow along.

Violence has been a part of films since the beginning of time. It’s been a form of entertainment.

My mum and I do cardio kickboxing classes together.

I try not to read the blogs or what people say about me. Because that’s what brings everybody down – no matter what you do, you’re always going to have haters.

I hope by the time I’m 30 to have a husband and maybe a baby.

Being cool is being your own self, not doing something that someone else is telling you to do.

One of the things that happens when people make the leap from a certain amount of money to tens of millions of dollars is that the people around you dramatically change.

For me, drama is conflict.

I sort of knew I was a bit of a drama queen. I always threw tantrums, so I knew I wasn’t a normal child.

What fiction could match – in drama or suspense – man’s first walk on the Moon?

I’m into parlor dramas. I’m into theatre. I’m trained for the stage. I trained to do Chekhov and Shakespeare, I was trained for the stage.

I really hope someday in Hollywood, some producer or director will hire me only to do drama.

A life filled with silly social drama and gossip indicates that a person is disconnected from purpose and lacking meaningful goals. People on a path of purpose don’t have time for drama.

Drama in our lives is the greatest indicator that we’re not focused on meaningful goals. On the path to purpose you don’t have time for drama.
