When looking back at how her family has evolved over time, Daisy quips that, "We all grew up, and they got grey hair -- even though mom's keeps disappearing." Daisy does not currently have a role model. When asked if she thought of herself as a feminist, Daisy answered, "Yes and no. Women should be able to do everything, too." Her typical day has her waking up and she either goes to school or work then off to softball practice and finally home to read or work on the computer. When her mother asks her to, Daisy will watch a movie with her and then go to bed to read and then sleep. "And eat somewhere in there, too."

Almost as if the answers to these types of questions are still being completed, while her life continues to unfold. Interviewee three, again shows the marked difference in the generations and the fact that her life is as yet not fully lived. Also, her answers to thought provoking questions have not even begun to formulate so far.
