Photo by: Eric Burch<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Taylor is a strong reader; she enjoys a book that has a good plot and is easy to comprehend. <i>\u201cThe Giver\u201d<\/i> \u00a0by Lois Lowry is her favorite book, and she also enjoys the Dystopian genres. Taylor, only being 15 years old, has a lot of things planned for her future. Taylor keeps her group of friends small and has a good head on her shoulders. She has a great sense of humor and makes friends easily. Being a freshman, many \u00a0people would not expect her to get out of her comfort zone and have friends that are older. However, she is easy to get to know and is genuinely nice to everyone around her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe cruelest thing of all is false hope,\u201d American Horror Story. This is one of Taylor\u2019s favorite quotes. She says, \u201cit means I would rather have someone tell me the truth right away than someone lie to make me feel better about myself.\u201d \u00a0In Taylor\u2019s perspective, she wants to see the world in a \u201cdifferent way.\u201d She wants to get a better understanding with life instead of seeing it through such small spaces. \u00a0With such a good head on her shoulders and setting morals for herself, Taylor says \u201cI want to be more of an optimist.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; By: Sydney Holzwart Taylor Brooke Danielle Drake is quite an experimenter who shows a love interest in everything she does.
