London, March 31: Australian actress Mia Wasikowska says she used to be "boring" when she was a kid. She as a kid liked to fit in with the crowd.
The 23-year-old insists she never set herself apart from the crowd when she was younger and was always happy to fit in with her peers.
"Growing up I was pretty boring, I was more of a follower than a leader; I didn't like showing off," femalefirst.co.uk quoted Wasikowska as saying.
The actress who began her film career aged just 15 only fell into acting when she suffered an injury that called a halt to her main passion, dance.
"I was very shy and spent all my time dancing. I used to dance up to 35 hours a week; it was the place where I found passion, friendship and experiences. Acting replaced dancing when I had to quit for a foot injury," she added..
The "Jane Eyre" star also admitted she likes knitting.
"I love knitting. Oops, maybe I shouldn't have said that, it's not good for my image,".she added.
