High school Quote by Michelle Trachtenberg
“The boys didn't like me in high school. No one ever asked me out. Uh yeah, they were really mean to me. Actually I was doing an interview because I'm promoting a movie called Seventeen Again, and so the big question is 'wouldn't you want to be seventeen again?' No, I really don't. I'm happy. I didn't have boobs when I was seventeen. I have boobs now. It's fantastic. I really enjoy them.”
