What Station Do You View JEOPARDY! On: On 7
What happened when you found out you were going to be on the show?
Well, I felt really surprised, I wasn't shocked because almost everyone in my family knew, except for me. I felt like a secret was being kept from me, really.
Did your friends or family give you any advice?
Well, they said, "Just do your best," that's all they wanted. "Just do your best," and, like, don't, like, overachieve or anything. Just go out there and have fun.
What is your favorite Jeopardy! category?
I'm hoping to see either GREEK MYTHOLOGY or COMPUTER SCIENCE.
What is your favorite subject in school?
Um, science. And math.
What did you do to prepare for today?
Well, my parents asked me a few regular quiz questions. I got most of them right. So I'm hoping they'll be on the show.
What will you do with the money if you win big?
Well, I'm going to have to put money away for college, but then, I want to buy, like, a few Lego sets if I can.
Is there anyone you'd like to say "hi" to?
I would like to say "hi" to my elementary school, Regeant School, and I would like to say "hello" to my Prep for Prep friends, and without them I wouldn't be here right now, and my intermediate school right now, Browning.
Where do you see yourself ten years from now?
Ten years from now, I hopefully see myself studying Greek mythology or becoming a scientist. Or maybe an archaeologist. |
