What makes you come alive? This is a question I have been pondering lately, because so many creatives that I have spoken with feel the same level of burnout and exhaustion. We have to all take the time to focus on the things that make feel alive, creative, and fulfilled! That’s something that this beautiful young lady, Haley, has done in phenomenal fashion. She is graduating from Hagerty High School, in the class of 2022! Haley is passionate about history and science, and enjoys doing plenty of volunteer work in her local community. She has also just made her foray into the workforce, with a part time job at a local restaurant…I know her sweet, smiling face will be such a joy for them. In her spare moments, she enjoys baking and cooking, reading, traveling, and doing some hobby photography. “I’ve made so many memories in high school”, she shared, “But being with my volleyball team before games was always so much fun, especially our freshman game, which honored breast cancer patients and survivors. We got to decorate the gym, and take pictures in fun pink accessories!”. Haley also shared with me that she has learned to be more careful with where she gives her attention and focus, and that she has learned to form true and lasting relationships with friends that will last.
After graduation, this stunning young lady hopes to attend FSU, where she fell in love with the gorgeous campus, and all the benefits they can offer her. She always loves that she’s close enough to home, but also gaining independence. “As of right now, I am planning to major in interior design”, adds Haley, “I have always enjoyed it, and it allows me to express my creativity and share it with people in a practical way. Art is also my biggest passion, and it’s my escape when things aren’t going too hot. It’s something that relaxes me, and helps me explore new things and be adventurous”. Another thing on her list of to do’s is to visit beautiful Montana.
I know this lovely senior has already found the things that bring her passions to life, and I hope she never stops chasing them!
