Caroline Peterson

It is the artists of this world, the feelers and thinkers, who will ultimately save us, who can articulate, educate, defy, insist, sing, and shout the big dreams. Only the artists can turn the “not-yet” into reality. How do you do it? Find out what you can do well, uniquely well, and then do it for all you’re worth. And I don’t mean “doing your own thing” in the hip sense. That’s passivity, that’s dropping out, that’s not doing anything. I’m talking about doing, which means serving your community, whether it’s a tiny town or six continents. Leonard Bernstein

• Personality
  
  
  
  
  
  Caroline has always been known to hide in her shell when she's around unfamiliar faces and in unusual places. Even after becoming familiar someone, she still talks sparingly until she truly feels like she knows that person very well. Because of her shy tendency to avoid eye contact, people often believe that Caroline's not listening to what's going. Yet, in reality, Caroline stays quiet to observe certain charastics about others; this is typically how she gets used to others.
  
  
  In the case Caroline actually is comfortable around someone, she'll express herself much more than she would in a new environment. It's when she's satisfied with her setting that she'll then start to speaks more often and let her personality shine. Those who know Caroline the best know that her outlook on the world is more playful than her hair. Her bubbly personality is present just about every single day; her smile is always around and she's always jumping to do something that she enjoys. She loves to find the best in everyone and everything and she loves to let someone know what she finds great about them, even more so. Caroline's overwhelming optimism typically comes off as pollyannaish and when things come out on the wrong side of her positive expectations, she is often found in tears.
  
  
  Caroline loves to take pleasure in the small things. Whether it be an object or an event, she can be found taking interest in whatever it is. Caroline's never found sweating the small things but when it comes to recitals, presentations, or meeting new people, the anxiety starts to kick in. Though she's confidence in what she can do, Caroline constantly fears the what the reaction of others will be once she does something. This, further explains why she waits sometime before she fully expresses herself to others.
