Pool Paramour
How old were you when you had your first kiss?
I was nine years old and I was in a swimming pool. There was a girl there, and she dared me or I dared her into kissing me underwater. That wasn't a French kiss — that was like a "muah" kiss.

Clothing Clueless
What girl fashion trend confuses you the most?
What doesn't confuse me about what women wear? When it comes to women's fashion I'm so oblivious. I have no idea what's going on. Some of this stuff from the '80s is just bizarre.

Spoiler Alert!
What's the chick flick you secretly love?
I'll fully admit that when I went to the movie theater and saw Titanic, I cried afterwards. When Leonardo DiCaprio died, I genuinely had tears. The fact that I'm crying over Leonardo DiCaprio says something.

Movie Mania
What's your TV guilty pleasure?
I don't have television so I don't watch TV. But when I did, any of those movie reruns on cable. Like Goonies or one of the Godfather movies. I'm a sucker for movie reruns. Anytime they're on, I can't leave the house. I know exactly what's going to happen, and I'm still riveted.

Hot for RPattz
Who would play you in the movie version of your life?
Woody Allen. I'm pretty neurotic. Robert Pattinson is like the last person I want to be compared with. I think any girl would throw me under a bus to be within five feet of Robert Pattinson. I actually think he's an attractive guy. And I watched most of Twilight, and I think he was really intriguing.

Journalism Junkie
What is your dream job?
If I wasn't a writer/director, I would be an investigative journalist. There's something about being an undercover journalist. I mean that's freakin' cool! Maybe that's just my Hollywood version of investigative journalism. There's this image I have of it being so magnificent, but it's probably a lot harder and grueling than my imagination.

Family Man
Who in your family are you closest to?
I'm very close with my mom. I talk to my mom more than the average 26 year old. But I'm very close with my grandfather who's actually in Poland. We talk on Skype, in Polish.

Not Like Other Vampires...
In your opinion, what makes The Vampire Diaries different than other vampire TV shows and films?
It's very independent of all the other stuff out there. The books were written 15 years ago — before Twilight. It's a very original story, and it's important to me that my character and the whole story's judged for what it is.

Rocking Out
What's the last song you listened to on your iPod?
I'm really into — everyone's listening to them, they're a great band — Kings of Leon. Just got into them. Their old albums, new albums. I listen to them all the time.

Not a Dreamer
What did you dream about last night?
How I'm going to be asked lots of questions tomorrow and I'm not going to have any answers! [laughs] I don't ever remember my dream; it's really sad. I want to. If there's any advice, tell me! I had a lucid dream once, and I want to more.

Like, 12 grand. I'm kidding. I don't actually have a wallet on me. Literally, I have a license and two credit cards. I don't carry a wallet. And no cash.
