Abi Hasselbring

By Abi Roe

 

With medium reddish-brown hair tied up in a bun, freshman Abigail Louise Hasselbring (or Abi H.) has young and glowing skin.  Soft freckles adorn her face, and her deep-blue eyes glisten like sapphires.  A loveable, innocent, irresistible aura surrounds her, which is probably why friends are always near.  With a safe, quiet sense of style and a laugh of Christmas-time bells, Abi H. is truly a ray of simplicity in her friends’ otherwise complicated lives.

Abi’s shyness is so cute, and she’s just so awesomely funny!” said freshman Kalli Dinsmore.

At church and at school, Abi is surrounded by friends (it’s like a wave almost), and she would do anything for them, unless it would be embarrassing.

 “I love my friends, but sometimes they truly scare me a little,” said Abi.  “But they wouldn’t be them if that weren’t true, so I’m ok with it.”

Living in Newkirk for four years now, Abi grew up all over the Great Plains.

“Hmm, let’s see. . . OKC is where I was born, and then we moved to Mississippi, then New Mexico, and finally back here. This is definitely my favorite place because of my friends,” said Abi.

The well traveled Abi has her own unique way of describing herself.

“I try to be A.R.A.P. – “As Random as Possible,” said Abi H. in describing her personality.  “It’s just that strangers are creepy, and I can’t do anything without a friend.”

Her friends appreciate her random style.

Abi is a loud, raging buzz of crazy just waiting to scream out, but her shy outer shell is what usually pulls people away from that side of her,” said best friend Johnny Buchanan.

She may be popular with friends at church and school, but at home, it is a different scenario.

“My little siblings seriously are the bane of my existence,” said Abi. “If I could say I hated them without getting my brains beaten out of me, I so totally would.”

Someday, when she gets older, this randomly-crazy freshman wants to go to OSU, become a zookeeper, and have an apartment in a big city somewhere. So there you go, Abigail Louise Hasselbring in a psychological nutshell. Thanks for reading!
