With Christmas coming up, what is your favorite part of the Holiday Season?

This may sound corny but my favorite part of the Holiday Season is getting to see all my family and friends. There have been a quite a few laughs and embarrassing moments that well..would be better off forgotten, but without my family and friends these would be just mere memories. Its the ones you share it with that makes everything truly special.

I’m actually lactose-intolerant, but if I got to pick it would be a chocolate and peanutbutter milkshake at one of the old-fashioned soda shops

The last movie you saw was… was it good or bad?

The last movie I saw was Eagle Eye and I thought it was pretty good. I love action films and this one definitely had a different twist to it.

What inspires you?

Nature usually inspires me. It is so beautiful and serene even in the biggest of storms, and it reminds us to stop for a second from our daily lives and experience all that life has to offer.

What motivates you to get out of bed in the morning?

Well not a whole lot… lol. Truthfully its because I have to be on time to school in order to do morning announcements everyday. But thinking about it more, each day is a chance for a new experience, a new friend, or new knowledge to be gained. I believe we should make the most out of everything we’re given and not everyone is given the gift of a new day, so make the most out of your fresh start.

What has been the best thing about your Senior Year so far?

I’d have to say the best thing about my Senior Year so far was beating Wenatchee by 4 points in our first swim meet of the season It was close the whole way through the meet and at the end the feeling was just overwhelming.

What values or rules do you live by?

I live by the morals my parents have taught me, the values of my faith, and my own personal convictions. I try to live by my standards and nobody elses.

A lot of things actually. I am a mexiwegian( its mexican and norwegian), I’m allergic to wheat, I sing in my car to the people across from me in the intersection, I’m the “blondest” valedictorian that ever lived, I like to eat peanutbutter with a spoon, and I want to learn 5 different languages before I die.

If you could shop at any store, what would it be and what would you buy?

Its not exactly a store, but I love shopping at farmers’ markets especially in Ocean Beach, Cali. I usually by jewelry or fresh produce when I’m down there and I love it because I know my money isn’t going to some big corporation. A lot of the places even donate part of the proceeds to helping organizations, making my dollar go even further. Everything is original and unique that fits my taste.

Something I didn’t know yesterday, but I know today is….never try to

hiccup and breathe at the same time..its disastrous

If your friends and family could only use three words to describe you, what would they be?

Outgoing, loyal, and funny.

If you could shop at any store, what would it be and what would you buy?

Hmm….I honestly don’t think I could narrow it down to one store. Two summers ago, I had to opportunity to take a tour of Europe. One of my favorite cities was Paris (A.k.a. The fashion capitol of the World!) If I could shop anywhere, I would go back to Champs Elysées, a famous street in Paris, in a heartbeat.

What are you looking forward to the most this year?

I am looking forward to making more memories with my three best girl friends; Sydney, Darby, and Jamie. We have been friends since the beginning of time and we want to make our senior year our best one yet.

What advice would you give upcoming seniors?

Don’t slack off. All of the hard work you put in will pay off in the long run. Also, savor every moment because life can change in an instant.

Name three things you cannot live without.

1)Friends and family. 2) Music. 3) My adorable golden doodle, Quincy Lucille.

What would you say is your guilty pleasure?

Grey’s Anatomy…and a vente blended chai tea at my favorite little coffee shop, The Vogue in Lake Chelan.

What’s the single most important thing you learned about yourself in your travels to Thailand this Summer?

As much as I loved Thailand, I realized how thankful I am to live in America. We take a lot of things for granted that the Thai people would kill to have. For example, it is so easy to get an education in the States. All Thai people have to pay to go to school from grade school on. A lot of the families do not have that kind of money.

If you could change any one thing in life, what would you change?

This is going to sound like the typical Miss America answer, but I would choose to end war. During my trip to Thailand this summer, I realized how similar everyone truly is. The Thai people were so gracious and loving. Family is so important to them, just like it is to us here in the United States. My wish is that everyone be more tolerant of our cultural and faith differences and recognize the similarities that we share as human beings.

My favorite ice cream flavor is….

Absolutely anything created by the two best boyfriends a girl can ask for, Ben and Jerry.  :)

Something I didn’t know yesterday, but I know today is….

that one of my favorite smells, a fresh rain, is caused by the moisture activating the bacteria on the ground. Refreshing, right? It’s still one of my favorites, regardless of the scientific definition.
