What was the funniest thing, or thing you will remember most, about high school? The thing that I will remember most about high school was the fun that we had in our physics class making cardboard boats and catapults.
What advice do you have for underclassmen to survive high school? My advice to underclassmen is to trust in God and say a prayer before every test. Also, don't let your friends mold and make you who they want you to be but rather seek the Lord and be who he wants you to be.
What will you tell your classmates at your 10-year high school reunion? I hope that I will be able to tell them that I earned a degree in Hydrology/Engineering. I hope that I will also be able to tell them that I am still working on the family ranch and that I qualified for the National Intercollegiate Rodeo Finals.
