MELISSA QUOTES:

"It was so crazy! I had one really hard exam and it was my last one. After I took it I called my family and said, 'I'm done, I graduated!' I was so excited. Then five hours later I found out I got [OLTL]. It was a little overwhelming. I thought, 'I can't tell anybody this. My friends will hate me.' But it was a wonderful day that I will remember forever."

"When Laura came back to play Cassie everybody said, 'Oh my God, you guys could be sisters'."

(About speaking Spanish) "I don't speak it fluently, but I can get by. I speak Spanglish."

"I come from a big Cuban family, a lot of whom reside in the New York area. That's the best part of getting a big job, is your family being excited for you -- especially my parents, who shelled out a lot for college, dance classes and acting classes. It's so good to be able to give something back and say, 'See, your investment was worth it.' My dad's favorite joke over Christmas was 'Melissa was an unemployed actress for four hours."

"About 10 o'clock every night I get this weird second wind, and it's really bad when I have to work really early in the morning because I can't go to sleep."

"I love dorky guys."

"I've been having the worst dog cravings. I've been trying not to get a dog because I don't think I could take care of it as much as it should be taken care of, but I love dogs."
