The oak trees, the statues, Dr. Heiser’s reminders to pursue excellence: it could only mean one thing. We’ve all come home to PC. While everyone is excited to be back, there is a not so unusual question lingering in the minds of many. Who do all these new faces belong to? Freshman 15 hopes to entertain your curiosity, 1 person and 15 questions at a time. Without further ado, I would like to introduce you to

“What bug? Oh, that stain on the bottom of my shoe?”

7. What chore do you dislike the most?

12. Do you wear a watch?

No, I lost it. Time is always running away from me

13. What is your favorite holiday why?

My room currently smells of cinnamon and apple cider thanks to Febreeze so I’d have to go with Christmas; it has the best smells, my grandmothers’ absolutely irresistible cooking, and the most family wrapped up in a singularly amazing celebration.

Intro to Computers, Exel still gets the best of me.

Brushy Mtn. Mudpie, a Wilkes County original.
