As The O.C. started up again, I started to feel myself potentially getting pulled away.

I was nearly fired from my second job, which was writing press releases for Boston's public television station.

Eventually I became involved with somebody, and I was fired.

I was on 'The O.C.' and had a small part, which wasn't very challenging. I was a bit bored, so I started shadowing directors and they finally gave me a shot. From there, it led to directing other television shows. I am trying to direct a feature film, so we'll see what happens.

I consider The O.C. as my college. It was four years and I made friends who I'll have forever.

Sometimes I wish I could get fired.

There was a moment there when it was getting really bad and everyone was being let go. I was, like, 'Can I get fired, please? Can I move on with my life?

I am such a do-goody, people-pleasing kid - or I was - I don't think I've ever been fired, not even from an ice cream shop, magician for kids' parties, not even in my early jobs in radio.

I got fired from being a lunch-shift bartender because I had a reading of a play.
