I am a hardworking student and caring person. I love to play music; I play tenor saxophone, piano, flue, and sing. I play in several bands in the Stillwater Foundation, and write my own original songs. I also love to think about big ideas, philosophize, imagine, daydream, and learn. Being in the outdoors makes me happy, and being with my family even happier. I'm looking forward to a great sophomore year!biologybiologyColleen Dunningbiology is the study of life.In biology, we are studying cells, anatomy, and structure.
