Something you?d be surprised to know about me: My friends call me "the vault." I am the best secret keeper in the world.

My first kiss: Jeez, who remembers? It was too many semesters ago. But I do remember my best kiss.

Something that makes me see red: when people gossip.

If I could live anywhere, it would be: New York City or a surrounding area ? or somewhere in the desert.

Greatest love: God. He has been there every happy and sad minute of my life.

Person who I would choose to play me in a movie: Kate Hudson

In the event of a fire, aside from human beings or animals, the one possession I would save: my Blackberry.

I never committed a crime, except that time I: stole a bunch of candy when I was 8 and got caught red-handed, literally red-handed. They were cinnamon!

My epitaph: "She was a decent actress, but an amazing friend and lover. She lived her life to the fullest and as she wanted to."

What I would title my autobiography: Cat Tales or Nine Lives
