"Hey, Fig!"

"Oh, hi."

"Say, I didn't get to finish my interview‑if you've got a moment now, can I go over it with you?"

"Sure."

"Let's see ‑ you're President of GAA. Right?"

"Right."

"And you're a member of Aquiana, theatre club, and Student Council. Right?"

"Right."

"You were in the Junior olympics, and on the Park District swimming team last summer. Correct?"

"Yes."

"Oh, and you took a 4th and a 5th place at the State swim meet. You teach swimming too, don't you?"

"Uh‑huh. To little kids and older women."

"I understand you're also a senior leader and on the honor roll. Jeepers, where do you find the time ?"

"I dunno."

"Earlier you said something about getting drinking fountains and pencil sharpeners mixed up?!? Would you care to explain that?"

"Nope."

'Oh. Uh, I hear you got a new car for Christmas!? Poor kid!"

"Well, it's not exactly 'new', but it's a car. And Santa brought me rollers so now I can have curly hair."

"That's nice. What's this about a pet peeve? You don't like people who say 'I can't do it' when they can? Would you like to explain that?"

"I can't."

"Oh, I see. Well, Fig, have you decided what college you're going to?"

"Yup."

"Where?"

"University of Illinois ‑ and I'm gonna' major in physical education with special interests in dance and swimming."

"Gee, that was a mouthful. One thing has been bothering me‑what's your name?"

"Sharon Fogelquist."

"Oh, that's nice, but why are you called 'Fig'?

"Gee, I dunno."

"Well, thanks for the interview?"

"Yeh, sure, any time. See ya."
