What has been the happiest moment of your life?
“The happiest moment of my life would probably be after I found out I got into symphony orchestra because it took a lot of hard work, but I was able to do it. Or after I PR’d [beat my personal record] against my time from last year in cross country. Those would probably be my top two.”
Maggie Popovich, Senior
What’s something you’re looking forward to?
“Being done with college application[s], … it takes up a lot of your time. And even if you haven’t started, the mental drainage of having so much to do for college and taking everything you’ve done and putting it in a little application, just to hope for something is a lot within itself. So I’m excited to be done with that.”
Linh Le, Freshman
What’s something you think about often?
“I don’t know. I don’t think about this as much anymore and just in my head, my mind wanders a lot.
And I would think about the most random things. But I used to draw a lot, and specifically portraits, so I would think about faces. Sounds really weird, but yeah.”
