1 | I was quite weird in school. I think people were scared of me because I was like really, really hyper. I had a few friends but I was never the popular one or the pretty girl...One of the reasons I love 'Game of Thrones' is because it's about finding out who your real friends are, and sometimes that takes a very long time to realize. |
2 | [observation, 2014] I feel like I've grown up extremely quickly working on 'Game of Thrones'. I'm now working in an adults' world at sixteen.. I can fly all the way to Northern Ireland but I can't book into a hotel because I'm still in my early teens. It's like this weird limbo where half of me is, like, 'Grow up!' and the other half is, like, 'You're still a child'. |
3 | She's feisty, a bit of a rebel, a tomboy, she is also quite brave and quick thinking, she wants to be listened to but sees everything very black and white... bit like me really! |
