For Brynn’s birthday one year, her grandmother gave her a red 2g iPod. To know how to put music on the iPod, you had to play this mini CD. Her family didn’t have a mini CD player, so the iPod was useless. Then, because Brynn’s grandma spent so much money on the iPod, Brynn didn’t get a present from her grandma that year.

When asked what Brynn feels strongly about, she replied by saying, “I feel strongly about doing what makes you happy.” She feels strongly about it because if you don’t do what makes you happy, you will always be bored instead of enjoying your life.
