I just didn't know what the heck I wanted to do with my life, so I drove out to California and got really lucky.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
It's funny, but when I arrived in California to start college I was much more interested in becoming a surfer and cruise along in life from one beach to the next. I didn't plan out any huge career for myself.
I have the luck to choose what to do in my life.
I always wanted to be a Californian. In my wildest dreams, I always liked California - it's the place where oranges grows on trees! Fruit just falls off the trees.
I had a nutty career. I was living in New York. Then I got to an age where my friends and sister were having children, and I started to think I needed to orient myself towards a world where it could happen.
It's not like I had big dreams to go to California and become an actor. I loved doing my shows at school and community theater, and I probably would have settled in New York because it was closer. I was going to go to NYU.
I didn't want to go to college. I wanted to move to Los Angeles right out of high school.
I happen to be lucky in that I knew what I wanted to do as far as a career since I was nine years old.
I'm very fortunate. I have a wonderful family, lots of hobbies and athletic pursuits. I always wanted to have a very well-rounded life.
I had a high-flying career. Never wanted to get married. All I wanted to do was have some fun.
When I was still in high school I knew I wanted to live in California.
