Adyson Keisel - Congeniality Award

1. What kind of BARBIE do you think you’d be?
When I think of a superhero, I think of someone who possesses many different qualities, making them unique and extraordinary. A superhero isn’t always a fictional character, but rather real life people. A superhero should have good intentions, great courage, and a passion to serve. These three traits enable remarkable achievements and are the foundation of personal greatness. I believe Superman has all of these attributes making him the superhero I would like to be.

2. What’s the weirdest item you keep by your bed?
I believe a true friend is someone who loves you for who you are and someone you can trust. A true friend is open-minded and accepting. They are caring, selfless, humble, positive, encouraging, patient, and my personal favorite adventurous! A true friend should make you a better person. Always remember, in the end it’s not the quantity of people you have in your life that matters, it’s the quality.

3. What cartoon character do you relate to the most and why?
Personally, I love criticism. I love having the opportunity to learn from other people. I recognize that there are things I do that maybe I don’t realize I need to work on and improve. When other people are willing to point out things I can work on, I have the opportunity to improve myself, which is something I strive to do every day of my life.

4. Would you time travel to the past or future?
Daily, I am always putting myself out there and trying something new each and every day! I want to experience life to the fullest, and not miss out on a single thing or opportunity. You’re only given so much time, so why not make the most of it?!

5. How would your parents describe your personality?
In my opinion, it depends on the person, situation, or matter. Crying often can show happiness and gratitude. Crying is a part of life and it shows that you are human and have feelings. It shows you care. Overall, I believe crying is a sign of strength.
