Hilary Carol Cruz

What is the craziest thing you have ever done?
I am terrified, and I mean terrified of roller coasters. This summer my friends somehow convinced me to go to Six Flags in Denver. After some major talking into, I actually rode every roller coaster one time, sitting in the very front seat. For me, this was pretty crazy, but looking back on it definitely worth it!

If you could have lunch with any one (1) person, dead or alive, who would it be and why?
Princess Diana. Princess Di was such an inspirational woman. While in her leadership position she truly used her title to make incredible contributions. I admire her for her many acts of kindness and make an effort to continue her legacy. She visited sick children all around the world. I visit sick children in my local hospitals. She was a woman who understood that she was in a privileged situation and that meant it was her duty to reach out to those who looked up to her. She is quoted saying, "Only do what your heart tells you." And I would be proud to tell her where my heart has led me this year.

Please list any Honors/Awards you have received in the past 2 years.
Class Representative 2007
Graduate of "Eagle U" Leadership & Success Seminar

What would be your "dream job" in life?
I want to be an entertainment journalist and work as a television host on E! or the Style Channel! Move over Vanessa Manillo!

Name one personal accomplishment (IN ADDITION to being a State Titleholder) that makes you especially proud.
I am especially proud of the fact that I try to do the right things for the right reasons. I am proud of who I am and the decisions I have made throughout my life. I think it is important to know what you stand for and why you stand for it!
