Me: "If you could bring to life any person dead or non fictional who would it be and what would you do with him or her? It has to be appropriate because I am going to post this." Xin- "I would bring back Stalin. I would take him out for cheesecake and have a good time." Me: "What would you talk to him about." Xin: "Like current events. The world is like this because you did that. " -Jay

"What motivates me is honestly getting out of high school and moving on with my life." What are you planning on doing after? "After I'm enlisting in the military so it's a different path in my life so that's my motivation. To be able to make my own path." Michaela Golding

"Studying abroad in Spain changed my outlook on life today. I lived in Madrid for five months and I definitely became a lot more grateful for everything that I have at home and my family. I'm thankful to be so close to my family and be able to see them and talk or them whenever I need, whereas in Spain, it was really hard to be so far and with the time difference it was definitely an adjustment where I really realized how important it is to have people I love close to me." (Michaela Golding)

What made you want to be a librarian? And do you like it? "Well, I used to work at Polaroid as a IT. When I had kids, I realized that I would need to find a job to work around their schedule. I also realized I missed them while I was at work. So I decided to work as a librarian, I'm around kids all the time now. I really like it." [Pearl Mathur]

Me(Jay): Make up any simple superpower that would help you in your daily life and how would you use it for someone else. You can use it to be a hero or a villian. Also, it cant be anything like super speed, super strength, power to fly, etc. For example if I picked up two different socks, they instantly become the same. If Ronak wore a regular sock on one foot, but on the other, he had his ducky sock, I would make both socks the ducky socks. Believe it or not, I would be Ronak's hero. Matt: "I can summon any food I want to, cooked. And that would really help out Ronak."

If you were a high school teacher to seniors, what would you say? “I would tell them to constantly follow their dreams. The only thing that stands in their way is themselves. If they believe in themselves they can accomplish any tasks at hand if they really want too, but they have to really want it. It is only worth it if you want it.”

Christina Grattan

Me: What would you tell someone who is going through the same thing you went through? Ms Carey: Someone told me, "its a bad time but you have to think about it this way, youre going through a tunel as a caterpiller and as youre going through its gonna be dark and hard to see whats gonna happen, but once you get to the end youll become a beautiful butterfly." And thats what got me through it. Nathalia Machado

Me: So you went into surgery a little while ago, but you were very motived to get your work done even though it was your last week of senior year when most people slack and dont do anyhing, and also youve already been accepted into college so what motivated you to work your butt off and not be behind? Kayla: I thought I would finish the year off strong. I wanted to self descipline myself and get my work done even though its the end of the year. I wanted to prove it to myself that I can do it and succeed. Nathalia Machado

Me: Where are you going to college? Nick: Umass amherst, for computer science.

Nathalia Machado
