By: Gracie Marsh Now as we are nearing the end of our third trimester, many seniors are thinking about graduation. This column will highlight one senior each issue and his or her thoughts regarding graduation. This week Elizabeth (Annie) Harrah is being highlighted.
Harrah is on the Bear River Spirit Squad, specifically the Dance Company Team. Harrah is working at Everything Your Heart Desires and constantly hanging out with her friends. Harrah’s favorite classes have been art classes. She loves drawing, ceramics and painting. She also really loves the history of art. During school Harrah had many favorite teachers. A few honorable mentions are her art teachers: Mr. Hyde and Mrs. Fyffe. She likes them because they taught her so much and really helped her enjoy art. Harrah's favorite thing about graduating is “moving on and starting a new chapter in [her] life and all the new people [she is] going to meet.” Harrah’s least favorite thing about graduating is that she is not excited to leave her friends; she is also nervous to pick a career and choose the right path. After Harrah graduates high school, she plans to take a gap year so she can just have fun and live. During her gap year, she plans to get ready to serve her mission, go on a trip to Europe, and go to as many concerts as she possibly can. Harrah’s plans for a job is to be in the fashion industry either as a designer, brand owner, or a personal stylist. Harrah has a lot of advice for future seniors: “Future seniors, here are some things I wish I knew before I was a senior: I wish I knew how amazing people can truly be. Don’t waste your time and find your people. Next, senior year is amazing, but it does come to an end, so don’t hesitate on anything! Tell that person how great they are. I would try and compliment at least one person a day, take time to discover yourself, apply for that dream college, and spend as much time with your friends. If you don’t get asked to a dance, still go and make the best of it! You could go with a group of friends or even by yourself. You can have so much fun in any situation as long as you have a positive attitude. Next, apply for any and every scholarship! I wish I had because the worst that’s going to happen is that they say no. Next, don’t be afraid to be yourself and do things for yourself! Step out of your boundaries and try new things. You can do this through fashion, wear things that represent you, tell your story. Wear that weird jacket you found in your grandma’s basement, or that skirt, yes, even if you’re a boy, just be sure to wear shorts. Clothing has no gender and no rules. Wear whatever you want because they come off at the end of the day anyways. Plus, it will give the teachers something to talk about during lunch. Some people might call you weird for the things you do but others will love it. Stick to those who love you for you. Work hard, stay true to yourself, and treat people with kindness. All the love, Elizabeth.”
