Anna Wegener, Staff Writer
Hey! My name is Anna Wegener and I am a sophomore at SHS. This is my first year at The Leaf. I am very excited to be a Staff Writer and be a part of the collaborative, behind-the-scenes work it takes to produce a news magazine. I’ve always been interested in writing, but I’ve never gotten a chance to freely and independently write without all the rubrics -- until now!
Besides the new adventure of journalism, I run cross country, and winter and spring track. I’ve run cross-country and track since 7th grade, and honestly, it’s a love-hate relationship. One of my favorite parts of running is the adrenaline rush that comes from racing alongside my friends on a crisp morning (preferably on the trails of the Cincinnati Nature Center).
When I’m not running, I like to read (anything!), spend time with my dog Winnie (lots of walks, tennis ball hunts, and naps), and watch Netflix (currently deciding if my favorite show is “The Good Place” or “The Office”). In addition, one of my latest hobbies has been early morning bike rides with my dad to try all the Cincinnati doughnut bakeries. As of this year, I’d recommend the seasonal hot chocolate or year-round buckeye doughnuts at Holtman’s. If you couldn’t tell, I’m a foodie! My favorite food is lasagna soup.
Journalism is one of my favorite classes of the day and I’d encourage you to join it next year! It’s a big, continuous group project -- just a fun one!
