++ Shaonta
I joined the group two weeks after the competition had already started but quickly adjusted to my teammates and topic. I am 17 years old and will be a senior at Kent- Meridian High School in the fall. I am very active at school participating in many activities such as Varsity Basketball, National Honor Society, Black Student Union, Making Connections, and of course Upward Bound. In the future I plan on winning this competition and going to college to become a prosecuting attorney.

++ Putri
The obscure one in the group. She goes to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and continues to pursue her goal to be either an auror or an accomplished Quidditch chaser. During the summer holidays, right after completing the Upward Bound program, she returns back to her home in the elven refuge of Rivendell and spends her time in seclusion when not working as a royal assassin or wreaking havoc along with Lord Elrond's twin sons. Sadly, none of these are true. She wrote this whole paragraph with "your lies can come true" in her mind.
