Sarah Erickson - Top 10

1.If you could make one rule that everyone in the world had to follow, what would it be?
If I could change my name, I wouldn’t change it all. I love the name that my parents gave me and I am proud of it! Although, I had a much different answer in kindergarten. Throughout my year of kindergarten, I would tell everyone my name was Caroline. There was a character in a book I read named Caroline and for some reason, I decided that it was going to be my new name!

2.If you could have any superpower, what would it be?
My favorite day of the week is Sunday. In my eyes, Sunday is a day dedicated to relaxing and preparing for the upcoming week. Also, you can’t beat being able to spend quality time with family members who are normally working on the weekdays!

3.When do you feel a child or teen becomes an adult?
My favorite movie as a child was Charlotte’s Web. I can remember watching it over and over again, never getting sick of it! I found it fascinating that the farm animals could talk and I adored Wilbur the pig. I loved the movie so much, I remember one day asking my mom if we could live on a farm so I could have my own talking farm animals!

4.What do you feel you have learned in life that will be the most useful?
Although I don’t play any sports myself, I absolutely love watching baseball. Some of my favorite memories I have with my dad include driving down to Wrigley Field and watching the Chicago Cubs. I will never forget staying up late with my family to watch the final game in the World Series and seeing the Cubs WIN it, the first time in 108 years. Go CUBS!
