Skyla Bliven is a junior at Normal Community High School. This is her first year as a staff writer for the Inkspot.

In my free time, I love to skateboard and to paint. Sometimes, I will take my paints and canvases with me to skate and I will paint when I get tired from skating. My best friend and I share these interests and usually do these things together.

On the weekends, I am always working.

My advice to you is to make sure you find time for yourself.
