Brianna LaPaglia thinks being single is "awesome"

She told People: "I really genuinely enjoy being single.

"I think there's a lot of girls that can relate and a lot of guys that can relate that are relationship people. I was in a relationship since I was 16 until 25. Being single for the first time ever is frigging awesome.

"I can order Taco Bell whenever, I can do whatever I want to do. I can go out, I can hang out with my friends. It's really fun. I feel like I'm figuring out who I am."

Brianna feels she's now "in the era of discovering".

She shared: "I feel like I'm in that time zone where it's like discover who you are, try new things and also leave a lot of negative things in the past. So I'm just trying to figure out who the hell I am - and it's fun!

"It shouldn't be discouraging. I feel like we get to a certain age and we're like, 'Oh my gosh, there should be time marks and things for what we should do.' I think there's no time limit, and I'm just trying to figure it out."

Brianna is determined to spend time with her "best friends and just have fun" this summer.

She said: "I think this summer is friendship summer.

"I think for the past couple of years I took for granted my family and my friends, and this year I just want to worry about my best friends and just have fun."
