Half the page shows the new upn promo picture of her. Here&#8217;s the article:<\/p>\n<p>Celebrity columnist-Shiri Appleby on Overcoming Insecurities<\/p>\n<p>You may think she has it all, but Roswell star Shiri Appleby was once embarrassed by the fact that she didn&#8217;t finish college. Instead of feeling sorry for herself, the beautiful actress decided to tackle her problem head-on!<\/p>\n<p>I had to leave college to start working on Roswell. But I didn&#8217;t want to feel like I wasn&#8217;t up to par with my friends intellectually. That&#8217;s why I&#8217;m a big supporter of reading. I haven&#8217;t been in school for three years. I haven&#8217;t been in lectures, listining to teachers feed me information. I&#8217;ve had to figure out what it is I&#8217;m interested in so I could have conversations with people and have facts to back up my opinions.<\/p>\n<p>In high school, I always felt like when a teacher told me to read something, it was almost like a chore. But now, when I read those same books, I appreciate them. I finished reading The Great Gatsby, and everyone I talked to read it in high school, but I never did. Maybe I was assigned to it and I just read the Cliff Notes or maybe I felt like I didn&#8217;t have to read it. Now, four years later, I feel so left out because I haven&#8217;t read all of these books that everyone says they read in high school.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s only a matter of feeling left out-you start to see reading as a gift because you&#8217;re not worried about what questions will be on the test. Instead, you&#8217;re just reading fantastic pieces of literature.<\/p>\n<p>Every book I read teaches me something about life and helps me get a better understanding of who I am as a person. I remember reading I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings growing up. I really identified with that book, because iit was about a young girl going through so much pain and it helped to put my life into perspective. And then there are times in my life when I&#8217;m yearning to fall in love, and all I have to do is pick up a book. Reading gets you to see life in different ways and helps you learn more about things you actually care about.<\/p>\n<p>Shiri Appleby (her signature)<\/p>\n<p>On the Sides of the article:<\/p>\n<p>The first book Shiri read cover to cover was Charlotte&#8217;s Web which seemed like a 700-page novel at the time, but now is one of her favorite classics.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s the only way to better yourself and het knowledge from other people without being in a school setting.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>On the December calander, they mention &#8220;Happy Birthday, Jason Behr&#8221; on December 30th. ( I think they forgot Shiri&#8217;s!)<\/p>\n<p>On page 100, they mentioned Colin&#8217;s new movie &#8220;Orange County&#8221;. Here&#8217;s the article:<br \/>\nOrange County<br \/>\nthe players: Colin Hanks, Jack Black, Schuyler Fisk<br \/>\nthe scoop: Meet super-nerd Shaun (first\/second season Roswell actor Colin Hanks), a senior at Southern Cali high school who&#8217;s looking to get away from his loopy parents and loser friends by applying to Stanford. There&#8217;s only one little hitch: His guidance counselor accidentally sends the wrong student&#8217;s transcript to the college. Rejected by his dream college, Shaun has 24 hours to get his life back on track. But we have a feeling the harder he tries, the more comical the results!<br \/>\nmust-see reason: Not getting into his dream school is a total nightmare, but Shaun quickly learns that&#8217;s just the beginning of the madness.<br \/>\n(J-14 classifies it as a comedy.)<br \/>\nNext to the picture it says &#8220;Spirit Fingers: Can the perfect cheer help Shaun get into Stanford?<\/p>\n<p>In readers picks, on pages 104 and 105, Jason Behr moved up one spot to #7 in Favorite Actors. Roswell has not been seen lately at all on the coolest TV Shows list so I would vote for it!<\/p>\n<p>On the last page, Last Word, features Jason Behr. Full page photo of the new upn promo picture of him. It features a quote also:<br \/>\n&#8220;Sometimes, the best thing about somebody is their flaws. If everybody was perfect, it would be kind of boring.&#8221;-Jason Behr\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thanks to Christy for this :) In the dec 2001\/jan. 2002 issue of J-14, they have got about 5 things<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"coauthors":[],"class_list":["post-2291","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-leading"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/crashdown.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2291","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/crashdown.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/crashdown.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crashdown.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crashdown.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2291"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/crashdown.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2291\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/crashdown.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2291"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crashdown.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2291"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crashdown.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2291"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crashdown.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=2291"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
