  • T: Do you have any pets? Why/why not?
  • G: I don't currently have any pets, but when I was little we had a canary bird named Ruby. He died when I was 8. My mom is allergic to most animals so we just don't have any pets, even though I kind of want a dog or cat or something.
  • T: Get a fish. Or aquatic animal.
  • G: We used to have fish too!! I can't remember what happened to them...
  • T: Did you flush them?
  • G: No, I think they just died too.

  • T: Is it a long commute, what's it like, etc?
  • G: Yeah, I have to take a bus and 2 trains to get to school. It's usually around 45min but I'm used to it. All the teachers I had this year we really nice and supportive, and I do pretty well in school so I enjoy it.
  • T: Name one pro and one con about your school.
  • G: One pro is that we don't do any testing at all, like no regents, and we don't have any finals. It's a pro because I HATE testing like crazy, which is why I chose to go there. A con is that there's only 100 kids per grade, it's really small, so I'm kind of stuck with the same people for 4 years. I already know everyone in my grade.
  • T: Favorite pastime.
  • G: I take a lot of dance classes during the year, and during the summer I like to go swimming and do yoga.
  • T: I've done bikram yoga before. It was crazy.
  • G: Me too! I love it.
  • T: OK, you're stuck on an island and you have 3 items. What would they be?
  • G: I would bring... 3 bookshelves of books given to me by everyone I know before I left for this island.
  • T: Knowledgeable. Also on an island, unlimited one type of candy, what candy?
  • G: Werther's originals. The hard candy thingys.
  • T: Why?
  • G: I don't really like any other type of candy, so yeah.
  • T: Why don't you like any other type of candy? Did you have a traumatizing experience with candy?
  • G: No, I just don't like sweets that much and those are the only ones I can think of.
