Katy Orellana Chavez, 8th, sat glued to her cell phone as she checked for the latest drama. Often laughing, Katy would describe herself as loud. A flaw she would like to eliminate is sleeping too much.

“I lose track of time a lot by just staying in bed,” Katy said.

Katy enjoys hanging out with her brother.

“He keeps me happy,” Katy said.

Going on road trips with her family is Katy’s best memory.

“We spent quality time together,” Katy said.

The best advice Katy ever received came from her aunt who encouraged her to cut all negativity and fake friends from her life.

“This was valuable because all negativity in my life is out,” Katy said.
