Juniper

I’m not really trying to be the center of attention, but somehow it just… happens. I mean, for a Mother-to-be, I get a lot of respect. Maybe it’s the way I carry myself or the fact that I know everybody. I’ve got a big friend circle, and I like keeping it that way—there’s always someone to talk to, somewhere to be, something to do. I’m on the student events committee, so if there’s a dance or a pep rally, odds are I’ve had a hand in making it happen. I’ve learned that popularity’s not just about being seen—it’s about being remembered. I put effort into listening to people, remembering the little details, and making them feel like they matter. Sure, I like the parties and the attention even after all this, but I also like helping people shine. Whether it’s giving a pep talk before a big game or helping a shy freshman find their way around, I’m there. I guess that’s why even the teachers tend to like me—well, most of them. Outside of school, I’m all about late-night coffee runs, music that makes you want to dance in the kitchen, and group study sessions that turn into laughing fits. My phone is always buzzing with plans—some of them mine, some of them just people dragging me along. I keep my schedule packed, because life feels too short to waste it being bored.
