Step on whoever it takes to become a hunkette.

I have always wanted to be a chocolate bar.

I don’t look into the mirror, the mirror looks into me.

Being named a Concord hunkette makes me feel:
Almost like being a gangsta did in ’99.

Gwenyth Paltrow. She’s talented, classy AND, as a singer, I’m super jealous that she was asked to perform on my favorite show, “Glee.” Now that I’m a hunkette, do you think they’ll ask me to guest star next? Do I need an agent?

Congratulations on getting out of bed.

Like I’ve accomplished all that I need to accomplish in life.
