Tell me something about this past year that you never want to forget.

The people at Joy Ranch.

Would you rather go to school or have school on campus? Why?

I’m torn. There are a lot of pluses going to school here, but going to school has my friends. I miss the drama. I like the soap opera.

What is something you’ve learned since coming to Joy Ranch?

Don’t pester to try to get an answer.

Is there something you would like to do or a place you would like to go in the next year?

Greece. I want to get some Greek olives to bring back and put on pizza so I can say I’m eating a halfway authentic Greek pizza.

Do you have any special talents/skills/crazy things you can do?

I’m a very good impersonator.

Enjoying the aquarium.

Dinner!

My big, poufy gray blanket. That or my wooden sword.

If you were in America’s Got Talent what would you do?

Some kind of impersonation.

What is your favorite dish or food that you can make?

I’m not much of a cook. Boxed mac and cheese is probably the best thing I can make, although I’m not sure that counts.

Do you have a favorite thing to say?

Not really. I don’t really have a catch phrase, although I’m sure I used to.
