Pixie’s coping mechanisms include “hard booze and… haha I’m joking” she says. “No um, I guess it’s sleep. Sleep is good, some intense sleep when I’m stressed, breathing…” Right before a performance, Pixie tries really hard not to think about it and she doesn’t play what’s going to happen through her head, “’cause that makes you a bit nervous, you know? I just try breathe and just…ja.”

According to Pixie, no one at this stage is ticking her off and that she thought her room mate during theatre stage was really “sweet and she’s young.” “It took us all night to find each other, actually. And then we found each other and it was like love at first sight. The beds were really closely pushed together, so I’m glad that we’re friends. In the hotel it comes like that, I promise.”
