Lexi Wurster Dillard

Lexi Wurster Dillard is an eighth grader at Clague Middle School.

Q: Tell us a little about yourself.
A: “My name’s Lexi and I’m in 8th grade. I do go to Clague Middle School. I like to go grocery shopping. I’m allergic to all animals, and I hate horses. I used to have bunnies, but then we had to get rid of them since I was allergic. I crochet, I like cooking, and I draw sometimes. Not well, but sometimes.”

Q: What is your favorite class and why?
A: “I like French because it really makes me feel connected to my culture. I really appreciate being able to learn more about France, and I enjoy the educational perspective of the class.”

Q: What hobbies/sports/clubs do you do and why do you like them?
A: “I don’t really do anything right now, but I did Michigan Youth in Government last year. I did swimming, I also did contra dancing. Did I mention I like grocery shopping? I love grocery shopping because I think it’s so nice to choose things. With grocery shopping, it’s okay to spend $400 dollars because they’re necessities– with regular shopping, it’s just a waste of money because it’s nothing you really need.”

Q: What is something you are proud of?
A: “I’m proud of the length of my nails. I used to have really short nails, and I hated them. Now, they’re much longer and I’m really proud of that. I’m also really good at finding the cheapest thing of a certain category. For example, I can find the cheapest blueberries at the grocery store. Personally, I think the cheapest blueberries are the best blueberries.”

Q: What’s an interesting/unique fact about yourself?
A: “I hate horses. I really like getting rid of horses. In my opinion, I think guillotines compliment horses very well– I think they could be really good friends.”
