I love Christmas, not just because of the presents but because of all the decorations and lights and the warmth of the season.

Communication is so key.

I did find some time to go to a record store and check out 'Headstrong' actually in the racks. It was pretty cool; I never thought I'd see my own CD sitting there with everyone else's. I made my Mom take lots of pics!

Cheerleaders deserve a lot of respect for what they do.

I'm a big romantic, so I love guys who are romantic too.

I give dating advice on a regular basis. It's not that I'm any expert, but it's always nice to share that with your friends.

I don't really believe in rules, but I do like old-fashioned dating where you don't call the guy until he calls you. I don't think it's like he's got to do this and that's the rule.

I'm definitely old-school when it comes to dating. I'm not into the 'game' so much. If I like you, I'll confront you and be open about it. Then I expect you to come after me.

I'm living out my dreams and I love what I do.

I've always wanted to be sure my parents approve of what I do. Even with my tattoos, my mom went with me.

For me, I just like to cut out bread. I like to keep the good carbs in my diet - I love pasta and Italian food - but I try to eat just that on the weekends and cut out carbs during the week.

When I was really little, I was on a Pop Warner squad. I did it for a year. My dad was a Pop Warner football coach. I did it because my best friend was also on this cheer squad, and of course I looked up to my sister who was a cheerleader, so I wanted to cheer.
