3. She says that constantly singing the American national anthem with her college roommate was her weirdest habit.
"(It was) just completely unprompted, and we would do it often. In our dorm, walking around campus, at fencing practice, with our friends, etc. But the thing is that it was like… telepathic—we wouldn't plan it, we would just know when to start singing it with harmonies to boot. There was also no intention of having particularly patriotic moments, but hey."
