Questions 4 Haven

Talking Trinity:   Hi Haven!  Is this your first time being interviewed for a global publication (Talking Trinity is on our website!) or have you done interviews before?  

Haven: No, Talking Trinity, never like this!

TT: You’re a senior at Topeka High.  What are your favorite courses in school and why?

Haven: I enjoy my Creative Writing 2 class because I want to write for a career. I also like being a Proctor because:  A.) I proctor for my favorite teacher.  B.) I do nothing.

TT:  What do you spend most of your time doing after school or on weekends?

Haven: Ha-ha, What are weekends? I’m busy with Dance team, THS Band, AFS club, Mandela (our school’s literacy magazine) Link Crew, Dance lessons, and Theatre.

TT:  How did you first get interested in dance?

Haven: My Mom minored in Dance so naturally she introduced me to dance at a young age. I was about 4 when I started to take lessons.

TT: What are the next possible steps for you after High School? 

Haven: I am looking at Colorado College in Colorado Springs and Baker University in Kansas. I plan on majoring in education and getting a minor in Creative writing.

TT:  What could you see yourself doing in ten years?

Haven: I see myself as an elementary school teacher/ successful novelist/millionare! (I am going to start a restaurant that serves one very specific item. Ask me about it!)

TT: What is your earliest memory at Trinity?

Haven: Bringing my blankie, “Big Mat” to Sunday school.
