What’s your favorite thing from the kiosk?

AM

I like the s’mores cookie, the chocolate one with the graham crackers and the marshmallows.

What’s your favorite thing to do outside of school?

AM
SL

Spend time with my friends and go for drives with them.

What’s one of your hobbies that most people would not expect?

AM
SL

The fact that I actually read a lot might be surprising. It’s mostly because my mom makes me, but I still do read a lot.

What is your favorite book that you’ve read recently?

AM
SL

I just read a really good book called “The Academy.”

What is one childhood memory you think of often?

AM
SL

I would say my first time at camp, but I feel like that is a little basic, so I would probably say any PE class at my old school. Those were always so fun.

What was the best part of those PE classes?

AM
SL

Bonding with my grade, playing Spikeball with my best friends. I was pretty good at that one.

Do you know how to play any instruments?

AM
SL

I started playing the harmonica last year, so that’s pretty funny. I know how to play “Piano Man,” “Happy Birthday,” and “You Are My Sunshine.”

What’s something about your life now that’s different from what you would’ve expected three years ago?

AM
SL

The fact that I still go to camp, because I was supposed to stop going three years ago, but I’m coming back for my eighth session next summer.

Who do you trust the most in your life, and why?

AM
SL

My mom because she has a really good opinion, and she also gives really great advice. And she also keeps everything private.
