Meet Nicole, our citizen of the week!

Nicole lives at 6746 Spring Drive in one of Ravenwood's most elegant homes. She's taken numerous tours of the beautiful historical buildings in her neighborhood since arriving on November 11, 2004, and Nicole feels like she's already learned a lot about Millsberry's history!

The most striking quality about Nicole is her friendliness. She has a talent for being able to draw almost anyone into a comfortable conversation. Nicole is also one of the most popular students at Millsberry Academy, partly because of her very charming and outgoing nature. She's a great person to have around in case there's ever an argument, because Nicole can very calmly talk things through with everyone involved. There usually aren't many disagreements when Nicole is around, though, because she always tries her best to make sure everyone is having a good time.

After school and on weekends, Nicole enjoys spending most of her time with her friends. They can often be found at a mall, where Nicole likes to try on the trendiest light blue, violet, and zebra fashions or browse the shelves of a music store, looking for the newest pop, r&b, and jazz albums. Nicole also likes catching the latest movie releases at the Downtown Entertainment Complex's theater or even just treating her friends to some pepperoni pizza at a pizza place.

When Nicole feels like spending some time by herself, one of her favorite activities is curling up with a good mystery novel. She loves to follow all of the story's twists and turns, and see if she can solve the puzzle before reading the final page. Nicole also likes to express herself through painting. She'll often spend long hours in her bedroom or studio, spreading brilliant shades of paint across a canvas in bold strokes.

Nicole's creativity doesn't end with painting, however. Her natural charm and outgoing personality, combined with her stunning vocal talent, also make her a great singer! She recently headed over to the Millsberry Recording Studio and recorded her very first tracks. Nicole's voice and performance were so magnetic that listeners were hooked right away! In fact, one of the songs from her first session has even made it into the Cinnamon Toast Crunch Top Ten charts! In the future, she's looking forward to recording another chart-topping smash.

Thanks for being a fine citizen, Nicole, and congratulations on being named Millsberry's citizen of the week!
