In Her Own Words: "I think it's important for people to be well-rounded. If you have just one focus, it brings you away from everything else, especially during your younger years in life, when you're able to do everything you can. You should live your life to the fullest. If you don't, you might regret it." -- Camille Powell

In His Own Words: "I want to pursue a career in entertainment. I can see myself working as a television producer or working behind the scenes in music production. One thing I'll keep doing is giving back to community, because it's something I enjoy. Helping people in need is really rewarding." -- Tarik El-Bashir
