How we become moral and understand good and bad, and how we overcome our impulse towards violence, is all really important to me, as a person.
I was one of those kids who wanted to do everything, I wanted to be a marine biologist, an actress, a writer, an environmentalist, an activist.
Basically I listen to just about everything except heavy metal.
I didn’t play video games because my parents didn’t allow it. That was banned from my childhood experience.
I started doing martial arts when I was a kid. I don’t often get that kind of role, although I get to do it periodically, which is a lot of fun for me.
I’d rather walk than drive a car. In Vancouver, where I am from, you can get to just about anywhere you need to go on foot. Even if it’s raining I’ll go out for a stroll. I just love that.
I get uncomfortable in large groups of people and loud music.
I quit karate originally because it wasn’t something that I was initially passionate about.
If I like it, I’ll buy it; pure impulse shopping.
It’s not that easy to find someone I can relate too. I’m tough to crack because I’m shy.
When I was in elementary school, I used to write letters to myself. I’d write letters and go ‘Dear Kristen-at-16-years-old, happy birthday. I hope you’re doing something.’
I did gymnastics when I was growing up and to this day I can still do the splits.
Life is about change, sometimes it’s painful, sometimes it’s beautiful, but most of the time it’s both.
I can travel anywhere in the world and I can pretty much fit in.
I think the education I’ve had as an actor I would never have had at university.
I wasn’t raised with a specific religion. I wasn’t raised to judge people in any way.
There isn’t a specific person in my mind that I’d want to play. Yet.
I love having messy hair. I put in a lot of effort to have it look as messy as possible.
I’d fly. I sit and watch the birds go by and say, I wish I could do that.
I really don’t use that much make up – I’m pretty natural. I wear even less of it in the summer.
In high school, I was the biggest procrastinator in the world.
