I spend several days at a time without enough sleep. At first, normal activities BECOME annoying. When you are too tired to EAT, you REALLY need some sleep. A few days later, things become strange. Loud noises become louder and more startling, familiar sounds become unfamiliar, and life reinvents itself as a surrealist DREAM.

I've been PRETENDING to be NORMAL for so MUCH of my LIFE.

I'm just a NORMAL GIRL who DREAMS, who FIGHTS for what I BELIEVE.

It's a NORMAL part of the culture of ballet to go to a nutritionist in your FIRST few weeks. They write down everything you eat and use a LITTLE roller that pinches you to measure the fat all over your body. Then, every semester, you get a letter saying EITHER you're too thin, or you're OK, or you're overweight.

If you WANT break it down, rock and roll is about SAYING what you can't SAY in normal life to girls, so you have to say it in SONGS.

I CONSIDER myself NORMAL. I've spent 20 YEARS in the POOL. I consider that SOMETHING that's normal.

'Normal bloke' is my STYLE.
