Esther Lee

Summer '23 Intern A

Mills High School

Class of 2024

Where would you spend all your time if you could?

I would spend all my time in my room. I love sleeping in my bed while reading on my phone. I also like getting creative, things such as making friendship bracelets, cards, and drawing. I would also probably be watching Netflix and Youtube the whole entire time. I always rewatch tv shows, videos, and movies instead of starting new ones.

What is the one thing people misunderstand about you?

I feel like people think I have never faced a big obstacle in my life and that I don't care about certain things. I can get extremely stressed in situations but I obviously wont show it. I also feel like people think I'm bad at lying, but I'm pretty good at it (im not lying).

Besides necessities, what is the one thing you cannot live one day without?

I can't live without music. I'm the type of person that cant sit still, so listening to music is therapeutic. I also get bored really easily and I absolutely hate getting bored. Listening to music is the only thing I can tolerate while doing nothing else.

If you could make one rule that everyone had to follow, what rule would you make?

If it was a rule that I would also have to follow, then it would be to be lenient on "Esther Lee" which is myself. If people started to become more lenient with what I do, things would definitely be much easier. Of course, this rule shouldn't apply to everything, just when I want it to (or life would be so frustrating).

What motivates you to wake up early to volunteer for a Charity Run?

I really like seeing people run the finish line. Most of the marathons I've went to volunteer had many runners had great costumes on. One time I saw a group of people wearing funeral suits and holding a coffin. I think its super enjoyable watching the runners.

How has HIM affected your life so far?

I get up more early during the days I volunteer. I get up super early and I'm used to it. I learned to always bring a jacket because sometimes its freezing. I also learned to wear a lot more sunscreen because you could get sunburnt.

What do you think of HIM Internship Program?

I think that HIM Internship Program is a great place for you to gain new experiences and potentially make new friends. It is also a great place to learn about the department and how HIM works. It also benefits you in high school. HIM Internship Program Managers are also very informative. You can always reach out to one of them and they will always answer your questions.

If life is a game, like some people say, what are some of the rules?

1. Let elderly and pregnant women sit in the bus 2. when someone smiles, smile back (unless its creepy) 3. Never ignore someones high five 4. Karma is real

What do you want to be remembered for?

I want to be remembered as the person who always seems to have fun. I don't want people to remember me as a stick in the mud, but as someone who brings color to life. I don't want to be seen as annoying but as someone with a good personality. Thinking someone has a great personality is an underrated compliment.
