On Friday, February 9th, 6 students performed in an attempt to gain a spot in the Spotlight on Talent Show. While these auditions were to take place on Thursday, February 8th as its own talent show for the public, the lack of interest pushed the event to Friday and it became a more private event. However, this did not stop the students from giving outstanding performances that the audience will remember. While all of the performances were music related, each stood out in its own way. Tiffany Guin sang “She Used To Be Mine” while simultaneously signing the lyrics to her song to allow deaf audience members to enjoy the song. Emma Osborne sang the cup song from the movie “Pitch Perfect,” and she even used a cup as an instrument.

Noah Terell, Declan Modica, and Ben Strattman played bass, guitar and drums respectively.

Because so few students signed up to perform, every student who performed will earn a spot in the Spotlight on Talent Show. It should be known that there shall be no prize for winning the Spotlight on Talent Show. It will simply be an opportunity for these talented students to show their skills for a bigger audience.

Rowan Miller is a 16-year-old sophomore from York, Pennsylvania. She moved to Supply, North Carolina in the beginning of last June. While she misses the greenery of PA, she is enjoying the warmer weather and living near the beach. “Overall I like living here,” said Miller. “I do miss my friends from time to time, but I’ve managed to make new ones here. I’ve also always loved going to the beach, so it’s nice that now it’s only five minutes away from my house.” Miller spends most of her free time reading. Her favorite genres are fantasy and mystery, and she is rarely seen without a book in her hand. Her love for reading has also impacted her writing in a positive way by making her more passionate about what she writes. She looks forward to writing articles about topics she's interested in in journalism. “I didn’t always enjoy writing, especially when it was for school,” Miller explains. “However, after I got back into reading I felt inspired to try to write more and find ways to improve my writing. It’s one of the reasons I joined journalism. I want to be a better writer.” Miller aspires to go to UNC Chapel Hill, and eventually become an anesthesiologist. She knows that the journey will be long and difficult, but she is hopeful that with enough hard work and effort she will achieve her dream. As for the nearer future, she hopes to be able to graduate early, and finally get a job.
