Favorite Teacher/Counselor: I can’t just have one; it would be unfair to all the other great teachers that have taught me over these years.

My Favorite way to relax: Lying on a bed or sofa, watching TV, munching down junk food.

My Favorite book: None really, reading is not really my thing.

My Dream Profession is:  Something to do with television. Whether it’s managing a TV network or staring in a tabloid show or some other TV show.

Biggest concern about college:  Getting accepted and if I do, how to pay of it.

When I go to college, I most look forward to: New experiences.

The piece of advice that I would give to a high school freshman about preparing for college is: Do your best – those bad grades that you accumulate in the beginning really hunt you later on.
