Barbara Walters: Drew, tell me the story of your life in 2 minutes.
Drew Barrymore: I was born at 11:05 a.m. in Bartman Memorial Hospital. I m a 1)Pisces for the 2)Gemini rising.
Barbara: Together?
Drew: I love 3)astrology. It s 4)indicative of something, I m positive. And I remember my childhood very, very distinctly as if it was like a Super 8 movie that gets played back in my own head. It s like a dream.
Barbara: Bad dream?
Drew: No, a good dream, interesting dream, a different dream at times, but never bad. I never once thought of my life as a bad thing for one moment. There were times where I might not have understood why things were going the way they were going or why certain lessons had to be so 5)harsh, but I never questioned why I had to go through these things, I always knew it was for a higher purpose.
Barbara: You were in E.T. as a 6)practically as a baby, now did you wanna act and that s how it happened or were you plunged to E.T. and low and behold you re an actress?
Drew: Well, when I was 11 months old, my mom took me into an 7)audition for a Gains Burger Puppy Chow commercial, and the dog bit me on the nose, and everybody thought, "Oh, 8)lawsuits!" And I just looked around this room of adults like with these panic looks on their faces and it made me laugh, and I started laughing until "Hired!" So that was my first job and I think my mom thought that this was a good thing for me.
Barbara: You went into Rehab. Those were difficult times?
Drew: Yeah, that was tough. It s hard when you re young to go through something so scary, but it s strange cause I think, a part of me could ve become so bitter from that, but I m so grateful because in turn the best thing of my life came from that which was the deepest appreciation for freedom, the outside, how good life can be. It s not that you see things that other people don t, you just have this 9)weird knowledge that I don t wish upon anybody, but if you have to get it. It s very worth while.
Barbara: You know, I look at you and you re so young, and you re so fresh and you re so beautiful, and then I know that when you were like about 14 or so, you tried to kill yourself. I mean it breaks my heart.
Drew: If you can believe that a person can grow and therefore change, which is what makes me understand why I had to do and go through some of the things I had to go through, I m such an extraordinarily different person now. The value I have for life means more to me than anything.
Barbara: OK, look ahead, where you re goanna be? Ordinarily, I would say 10 years, but where are you goanna be 5 years from now, what s the dream?
Drew: Same one I ve since I was little: to be on a farm, to be with lots of animals, to be with someone I love, and one night it will rain, and I ll know that I finally got there.
Barbara: One night it will rain?
Drew: Yeah.
Barbara: What s that got to do with it?
Drew: I love the rain.
