attends.
While perfonning her duti
at McGregor Library, Sam
comes in contact with a lot of
peopl and what pl her
most is being able to work with
the "little kids. "
"I counsel some of the little
kids at the library, " he said. "I
tell them what r think is right."
ONE OF THE things that
Sam thinks is right is her for­
mula for dealing with peer
pure. "I don't hang with
anyone, " she said. "That's how
I avoid peer pressure."
According to Sam, discipline
has always been a part of her
home life and she is thankful
for that.
"I am vel)' happy with the
discipline I received, " Sam said.
