I think that's what I really enjoy most,” Hiken said. “Doing it on myself, because I can choose everything I want to do.”

![Duckham spends large amounts of her free time reading. Dealing with fewer classes this year, Duckham’s bookshelf at home has seen more use. “I call every book my favorite, but not truly every book [is].

It was Burton’s first time in the Delmar Loop, with Dazey bringing him to Blueberry Hill. “I really like [Blueberry Hill] just because you have the darts, you have different things in an environment that you can play in that’s very just chill [and relaxed],” Dazey said.](https://laduepublications.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/20250406-DSC_4870-1200x799.jpg)
