People's Choice Award

1.What is the funniest thing you remember as a child?
My favorite time of the year is the Thanksgiving Holiday because that’s the time when my entire family gets together and eats so many delicious dishes! Everyone is just thankful for one another and their surroundings. I love it!

2.What is the one piece of clothing you wish you owned?
I am a gospel dancer for my church. The group is called Living Sacrifices of Praise Dance Ministry and we believe in using our bodies to dance and worship Jesus.

3.What season of the year is your favorite and why?
Washington, DC is an international city. People come here from all over the world, such as my family from Clarendon, Jamaica! Jamaica is home to my favorite beach, Dons River Falls, and has wonderful food and extremely kind people…just like DC!

4.What is your favorite movie?
My worst habit is that I sing extremely loud when I am in the shower! I do so because I want the whole house and my neighbors to hear me.

5.What song makes you think of yourself?
I would love to travel to France because I study the French language in school and France sounds like such a beautiful, wonderful and interesting place to visit!
