The troubled actress - whose career has been plagued by a series of legal problems and spells in rehab - admits she doesn`t need any more "negative stuff" in her life and wants to put her bad times behind her. She said: "I regret the choices that I`ve made, but I▓m grateful for where I am today because of them. I don`t need to see any more negative stuff, I don`t need to put myself in those places anymore." The 25-year-old blonde - who has been undergoing community service at the Los Angeles County Morgue as part of her punishment for breaching probation - claims the experience has been "humbling" and she has "learned from it". She added: "It`s been a learning experience and I`m glad that I experienced it. I`m grateful that I`ve learned from it. It`s helped me, it`s humbling." The `Mean Girls` actress - who has been in and out of jail and rehab since 2007 when she was arrested in a DUI (driving under the influence) incident - also wants to get her acting career back on track and attend the Academy Awards in the future. When asked on the `Today` show where she hopes to be in five years time, she replied: "Hopefully I`ll have just come from the Oscars this past weekend." Lindsay has been lined up to portray iconic actress Dame Elizabeth Taylor in new TV movie `Liz and Dick`.
