Haley S. -- 11th Grader at Dixon High School
Do you feel like you can be your authentic self at school & in front of friends ?
I do feel like I can be my authentic self at school and in front of my friends because no matter what I'm going to be who I am and if people don't like it then that's on them.
Does makeup/hair make you feel more “presentable” or are you okay being fresh faced in public ?
I don't feel that it makes me more presentable, I'm learning how to be happy with who I am on the outside and hiding behind the mask of makeup or hair won't help me strive towards the goal.
What makes you particularly happy?
What makes me happy is acting upon the journey that God sent me for. It makes me happy to give the opportunity to special needs children to do things that they wouldn't have been able to do. Being an advocate and a voice for those who have small voices but are unique makes me happy.
What makes you laugh ?
The office makes me laugh.
How important do you think is physical appearance?
Physical appearance is always a plus, but that all goes away at one point. "Its what's on the inside that counts"
What is your definition of true beauty ?
To me, true beauty is what comes from the inside. Their heart, their personality is what true beauty is all about. But to me everyone is beautiful in their own unique ways.
