MARISOL NICHOLS

I can bring Rain with me everywhere I go, but when she's in school, I don't know what I'll do. The longest I've been away from her is three days, and I cried my eyes out. The first day of school will be so hard.

If you were to ask me to speak Swedish or Dutch or German, I have no idea if I could pull that off!

I would love to do a really stupid character on 'The Office'. I'm so an 'Office' fan.

If you want a favorite book, Orson Scott Card's 'Ender's Game'. You'll be hooked. I think he's written like twelve or thirteen.

Every year, my family and I would go visit my mom's family in Texas. We would drive from Chicago to Texas, and once we started to get towards San Antonio, everyone looked like me! It was such a great feeling. Everyone had the same brown skin that I did.

I can't wait to use a BabyBjoern. I'm in love with the Orbit Baby stroller, and I also really like the Bugaboo.

I really want to work with Tim Burton and Johnny Depp.

Growing up, I just wanted to be like everyone else. I didn't value or understand the beauty in being different at the time in my life.

If I'm going to work, hopefully I have a late call time, and can hang out with Rain and our nanny until we shoot.

I'm pretty good with languages.

I am not really ever accused of being shy or meek.

We moved around a ton when I was a kid. I think we lived in 9 different houses before I was 15 - we moved from the city back to the suburbs; different suburbs, different houses, all over the place.

I love Vancouver.

I like the pirate and gypsy vibe. That's always been my thing.

We believe slavery was abolished with Abraham Lincoln; unfortunately, human slavery is alive and well.

Being in a new city with a toddler can be a bit of a challenge.

As soon as I became a mom, my birthday stopped having any meaning whatsoever.

My view of the world changed completely when I became a mom. I'm suddenly like, 'Do pop songs always say things like this? How could they put that on the radio?'

The second I got on stage, it was like, 'Oh my God! I love this! I love this!'

I got kicked out of high school, went to 3 different high schools and summer school and extra night school just so I could maybe graduate and try to make it up, because I flunked pretty much my entire freshman year, mainly because I just never showed up.

I had a pretty rough childhood. I was raised for a few years by my single mom, until she married my stepdad a little later.

I had a job since I was 12 years old. I did everything under the sun. I pumped gas. I worked at gas stations, car washes, dry cleaners, anything and everything that I had to do to pay the bills. So for me, I know what it's like to hustle.

If it's an international flight, I always like to wear a sheet mask.

Years ago, I used to skip breakfast altogether, wrongly thinking that if I didn't eat it, I might lose weight or something.

Everyone is born free and equal.
