Three Thoughts:

My Capstone Project would be on … the influence of idiolects.

If I could have dinner with any three people, alive or dead, I would invite … JD Salinger because I would love to meet the man who created Holden Caulfield, George Michael so that he could sing to me, and Malala Yousafzai because she’s an incredible inspiration. I could listen to her talk all night.

Someone I admire or consider a hero is … Captain Sir Tom Moore. At the age of 99, he started walking laps in his garden to raise money for the UK National Health Service, hoping to raise £1,000 by his 100th birthday. By the time his birthday arrived, he had raised £32.79 million.
