She is gay, sad, and angry by extremes. One who provokes her should head for the nearest shel- ter, for any minute all havoc will break loose. Speaking her mind is one of her strongest habits, which, in the past four years, has often been prac- ticed. Having all the spices which flavor, giving tang and pepper to her personality, she also adds her merry laughter. Frequently engulfed in a cloud of pensiveness, her meditations match those of the Yogi. Always push- ing, and never pushed, she toils at her school work while actively engaged in numerous outside activities.
