3 Replies

Froot

Hello everyone! My name is Sam. Middle school nicknames include: Sammy Sosa, Samwise Gamgee, Samuel Jackson, Sam Sam Green Eggs and Ham, and Joe. Please give me a new one.

I’m a huge fan of forgetting to shave and eating buffalo chicken. I love crime thrillers (Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, Drive) and sappy films like Love, Actually. Ones in the middle like O Brother Where Art Thou are also good. I enjoy walks on the beach of any length and I HAVE been to China in the past six months.

Dogs. Spiderman. Crunchy peanut butter. Books like The Crying of Lot 49 and Looking for Alaska cuz where did she go??

Wheat Thins! Game of Thrones! Theatre! Improv!

It takes 792 licks to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop.

Hi, I’m Eliza! I’m in my senior year of college, and I’m an English major. I like to write, to laugh, and to travel–this summer I traveled to Italy, Iceland, Croatia, and Scotland. I have a major sweet tooth: chocolate ice-cream is my favorite (don’t forget the rainbow sprinkles!) I hope to become a high school English teacher.

Here’s a video telling you a bit more–

Jake's Intro

This is me spinning fire.

My name is Jake. I am a sophomore at Vassar college. I’m a prespective Biology and Education double major. My favorite topics in biology are genetics and microbiology.

In my free time I like to spin fire, juggle, watch TV, bake, and play with my dogs. I currently have 2 dogs, Zoey and Elmo. I work in a theater as an Assistant Technical Director and have always found enjoyment in theater.

My favorite Crayola color is Robin’s Egg Blue (although Mac and Cheese is a close second). Of all the cities that I’ve traveled to are Rome and Paris are my two favorites.

I don’t know what my superpower would be, although I think about it quite often… I’ve always wanted to go shark diving (without a cage of course).

Portrait of Logan created by artist Emma Keane (at age seven)

L ogan doesn’t really like talking about himself.
O n occasions when he’s asked to he stalls and says he doesn’t like to.
G etting Logan to write a bio would be difficult.
A nd I guess this is pretty obvious,
N ow that we’ve gotten to the last line and all he’s done is spell his name vertically.

Who is Katie H…

Hi!  I’m Katie H and I’m a senior English major at Vassar College.  That means that I get to write a lot of papers, read piles and piles of books, and get very little sleep.  I am also studying to be a teacher.  Teaching involves just as much constant learning as it does teaching and this year, I get to learn about digital storytelling.  This is a new topic for me, and I’m very excited to go ahead!
