- Age at beginning of school, height: I was still 15 at the beginning of sophomore year, and my height was consistently about 5'6".
- How you have changed this year? (4 sentence minimum): Throughout sophomore year, in particular, I have changed continually, for the best. I made a lot of mistakes, but I've also learned a lot of new things. I have discovered how intelligent I really am, and what I am really capable of. I have also dyed my hair bright red, gotten a very short haircut, shaven the side of my head, and pierced my nose. I have become a totally unique and ever changing character, and I've gained a lot of confidence in myself through that.
If you could put one thing in your time capsule, what would it be?: Clothing! <3- If you had 10 million dollars RIGHT NOW what would you do with it?: I would most definitely put that money towards my education and my love of traveling. I would also take my mommy on a trip to somewhere in Europe, such as Greece, because I know she would really love that.
- What was your favorite experience of this year?: I had plenty of amazing experiences this year, and it is difficult to tell which one is my favorite. I do recall the time when my best friend, Hana, moved here back from Washington. I was excited, because I missed her very much and hadn't seen her in months.
- Favorite friend: My best friend and sister, Hana McCullough.
- Favorite class: English, at this point, is my favorite and strongest subject. While I was still at Sentinel High School, I also enjoyed Broadcasting.
- Favorite teacher: My most beloved teacher was definitely Mrs. Pohl, at Sentinel, but here it is probably Ms. Read or Mr. Kuchel.
- Favorite food/drink: I love a variety of foods that involve culture, but I am currently living off of Top Ramen. My favorite drink is probably coffee.
- Favorite animal: I adore cats and owls.
- Favorite novel: It is hard to say, but at this point, it has got to be The Perks of Being a Wallflower, because it has truly made such an impact on my life.
- Favorite film: "Breakfast at Tiffany's" or "Rocky Horror Picture Show".
- What are your academic goals for your final years in Florence: To take honors classes, mainly for English, accomplish AT LEAST all A's and B's, and to LEAVE Florence for the foreign exchange program, eventually.
- What do you want to be when you grow up (career)?: I aspire to do something with my career that involves art or writing(I love dark poetry), and I also love fashion, so that is important to me and my career, too.
- College?: I am working hard so that I can get in to a great college, preferably in London.
- Brand of deodorant you use?: Mitchum brand, for men or women.
- FACTS OF TIME:
- Most memorable moment of this year? Academically and socially.: Recently, when I discovered my true abilities and intelligence; I have been acing every test in Spanish class and got an A on my history test as well.
- Biggest learning experience? Any.: Getting into a bad car accident has definitely been a huge learning experience for this year, because I have learned to take so much more caution, and have also realized how important, yet fragile, life is and that I lived for a very good reason.
- Who were the people you hung out with?: I have a very minimal group of friends. I mainly spend my time with Hana McCullough, but sometimes Emily Juden, too.
- What went through your mind in the beginning of your freshman year?: At this point, that seems like quite a while ago, but I remember I was excited to finally be in high school, yet scared and intimidated by all the upperclassmen.
- Drivers' Ed?: I took Driver's Education during the summer after my eighth grade school year, which was quite young. I got my license the following winter right after I turned fifteen. It was a strange experience, because the Driver's Ed teacher was rather disrespectful to women in particular, and made a few of us uncomfortable.
- What was the style?: The style of this day, 2013, consists of skinny jeans and a little bit more edge, graduating up from the past 2000's. However, my personal style consists solely of the early grunge 1990's.
- Most disliked person?: Probably the whole "popular" crowd in my school. In my opinion, they are all very fake and two-faced. They are very flat, unchanging people who follow to be like everybody else and don't "dare to be different." I feel as though their closed-mindedness will not help them throughout their lives.
- Favorite quote: "We're all mad here"(Alice in Wonderland), "For attractive lips, speak words of kindness. For lovely lips, seek out the good in people. And for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone.(Audrey Hepburn)" and

Some of the nice kids become a part of the crowd, and become rude. For me, however, I believe that I have possibly changed most of all.
- Funniest moment: That is one question I could not possibly answer. Particularly with my best friend, Hana, I have countless hilarious memories. We laugh together everyday and share a very similar sense of humor.
