Everyone is a completely different person, and everyone expresses themselves in ways that are entirely unique. Some people may do it through clothing, tattoos, music or piercing and some people like showing little hints of their personalities with handmade jewelry such as bracelets.

“[My bracelets] are all colorful and I guess I’m colorful,” freshman Nancy Carrie Logan said. Logan wears a few hemp bracelets on each wrist, most of which she made herself or got as gifts from her close friends.

“[Nancy Carrie] thought the bracelet was cool, it’s made of yarn, rolled around other pieces of yarn,” freshman Lidija Barisic said.

“I made some of them with my friends,” Logan said “I made one for musical so I can remember it.”

A hemp bracelet made of many colors hangs on her right wrist as a reminder of the musical, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream Coat (where she had the role as one of four narrators).  Logan added a lot of colors to the bracelet because the play itself was really colorful.

“I actually made all the narrators [from musical] one so they can remember it, too,” Logan said. Making a bracelet takes Logan up to twenty minutes, she likes the way they look and it is a hobby she really enjoys doing since attending Camp Massenta, where she made her first hemp bracelet.

Most of her bracelets involve a memory of a friend or something she participated in. Logan is also part of the gymnastics team where she befriended sophomore Gentry Dove, who also made a bracelet for her after Logan asked her, so she could have a memory of gymnastics.

Logan also has a bracelet with her name printed on it from Disney World.

“It’s my favorite place in the world, it couldn’t fit my whole name [on the bracelet] so it just says ‘Nancy C’,” Logan said.
