Or away from the The Hills, if you will.

Like Lauren Conrad, Audrina Patridge has apparently had enough of the reality show that made her a star and is leaving to pursue ... anything but.

"I'm almost done with The Hills, she said. We are currently finishing the episodes for this fall, and I'll be leaving then. It feels like I'm graduating. I'm taking the next step and growing up and maturing and moving on in my life."

Patridge who is developing her own reality show with Survivor producer Mark Burnett - said she would like to pursue acting as well as reality TV projects.

"I moved to L.A. to be an actress, and before The Hills, I was going to auditions and working at [film studios] Quixote and Smashbox," the hottie said.

She credits The Hills with helping her be "comfortable in front of the cameras" and "getting into character." Yes, getting into character. On "reality" TV.
