Q: What sorta girls catch your eye these days?
NICK: It dosn't really matter to me what she looks like as long as she has a good personlity and she's really nice. I don't care if she has blonde, dark or reen hair! But she's gotta be independent and like herself and not care about what anyone else thinks.

Q: Can you describe a perfect date?
NICK: I would take her to the beach at night. There would be a full moon with a bunch of stars out. The sand would be pure, white, beautiful and soft. The ocean would be calm with the moonlight shining off the water.
