Jul. 10th, 2016 08:00 pm [ The morning race.]
[It wasn't often that Sandy was ever late for school really, she was always up in the morning running around town getting her morning workout in. Taking after her sister's work ethic Sandy wouldn't let herself miss a day of running.
But after running around town she had to run home and shower off so she wouldn't smell like sweat all day long. And as it so happened her mind began to wander in the shower leading her to be late, popping out of the front door of her home and hitting the street with an entire peanut butter and jelly sandwich hanging from her mouth.
Typical American attitude.
Thankfully she's fast, as one might expect from a member of the track team so if you're in her way look out! She's gonna either pass you or crash into you!]
On your left!

[ Unfortunately while she's a hard working little athlete when it comes to class Sandy is...easily distracted. She'll often get caught doodling in her note book or starring out the window clearly wishing she were enjoying the beautiful weather. About the only classes she pays close attention in are History, Art and music class. Maybe she's been assigned to work with you and if that's the case she'll smile apologetically promising not to drag you down too badly.
Outside of class she can be found outside of the building strolling around, or in the library or lunch room drawing in her note book. A nice enough girl just not terribly focused or willing to stand out from the crowd unless it's in one of the subjects she's passionate about.
One particular note is how Sandy never eats or drinks anything at school she doesn't bring herself or buy from a vending machine. The school lunch and water fountains are all perfectly functional but she never gives a satisfying answer as to why. ]

[ True Passion. ]
[Keeping in the proud tradition of after school programs Sandy is a member of both the Art Club and the Track team. Depending on where you find her you'll notice her attitude is fairly different in each place.
In Art Club she is an often frustrated but talented amateur, often working with paints and paper though sometimes branching out into other art forms like sculpting. While the work is good the subjects of her work often confuse her as she tries to make the picture have meaning that she can't grasp. The teacher who helps with the class has long given up on trying to help her be satisfied with her current level of skill and instead offers a critical eye in hopes it will inspire her. What helps more is when she moves around the classroom and watches the other students at work. It's soothing to her watching art be made.
Out on the field she's a completely different person. At peace if not excited about the sport she runs hard and fast every day as if she's being chased by monsters or something. And when she screws up she screws up hard, crashing to the ground and spinning before forcing herself back up to keep running, always desperate to push her time down a little more.
As expected from the little sister of someone who was formerly a star athlete in the school. Sandy may not be on that level yet but it's clear she's aiming for it.]

[ A Girl and her Duck ]
[ As the sun sets on this sleepy little town Sandy opts to stay out a bit before dinner, wandering the streets. One of her favorite places to lay about is an old bridge with a shallow stream of water passing under it. A large white duck swims up and down the slow moving stream as Sandy lays about in the grass watching the clouds go by. Eventually she gets up and pulls some spray cans from her backpack retreating to the underside of the bridge and getting to work. Today she's painting birds racing along the wall which she already painted earlier to have stars and a large moon. Some day she expects someone will notice what she's doing down here and put a stop to it, but hopefully not tonight. She's feeling particularly inspired and enjoying the hiss of spray paint and the smell of it drying.]
