What attracts you to the UA? Why are you going to be a student here?

It’s the best. Where else am I going to go? ASU? (laughs) That is a joke.

Haven’t you heard, UA is combining with ASU?

No. You are lying. If that happened I would move out of this country, not even out of the state, just out of the country. I couldn’t deal.

OK, and what is with the hat? Big birthday?

Sort of …

Is it your birthday or not? It’s a one-sided question …

No. To be honest, I just love attention and this hat gets a lot of it.

Fair enough. What is the furthest you’ve gone for a bit of attention?

I was one of the kids in the lunchroom that started food fights.

So you were the one that made me cut the gum out of my hair?

I never put gum in girls’ hair. Peanut butter works way better.

Have you ever been bullied?

I don’t think people would even think of messing with me. I wear weird things all the time and people do not want to go there.
