Actress Drew Barrymore looks better than ever on the cover of the latest issue of W Magazine (April 2009). Despite being 34 years old and having plenty of experience in the movie industry, Drew is still trying to figure out how a relationship should or should not work.

Drew also opens up about the difficult relationship with her mother and how she makes everything to be happy every day. Here are some highlights from Drew Barrymore’s W Magazine interview:

On working hard to be happy: “I get out of bed with a spring in my step like, I’m going to f—in’ rock this day. I’m going to make people happy. Here I go.”

On her 5 year relationship with ex-boyfriend Fabrizio Moretti of the Strokes: “One of the most, if not the most, important relationships I’ve had in my life. We’re still very close. I’m just learning who I am and how relationships work and how to make them function. No different from anyone else.”

On her relationship with her own mother being “the polar opposite” of a love story: “My mother and I split ways when I was very young and have never really reconciled.”
