New Peer Combines Creativity, Patience


Carrie, pictured right, may be a new peer at Perry Wellness Center, but she has already mastered her breaktime routine. She loves to complete designs on paper with colored pencils, and she has found the secret to the best drawing.

“I like my pencils to be sharp,” Carrie explains. “The design I plan to complete has some tight places. A sharp point is necessary.”

So, she takes the time the sharpen all her pencils before she begins. Earlier this week we talked about the benefits of doing jigsaw puzzles. “Adult coloring” is also a trend that is popular because it reduces stress. Seems it also teaches patience as well!

Welcome to PWC, Carrie, and thanks for showing your attention to detail.
