Edition: 02 - Jaqueta Palencia

Hello, hello everyone! After a very successful first edition of Getting to Know Your Staff, it is time to bring in the big guns of the second edition! This time, we feature our brand new Chancellor, Jaqueta Palencia! I bet she has some super cool secrets that I may or may not be able to uncover for you wonderful readers! Keep reading to get some juicy details!

Cass: Jaqueta, I want to thank you for joining us! I know you're quite busy right now with getting used to your new job. I just want to tell you that I cannot WAIT to see what you do for us.
Jaqueta: Yes, thank you! I can't wait to begin!
Cass: Perfect, perfect! Our questions will be similar to last weeks questions, so if you saw that then you know what I've got in store for you! Now, I know you just started, but what is it like being a Chancellor?
Jaqueta: I did quite literally just begin so I'm not too sure of how to answer that question . . . it's exciting for sure, I'm still processing it all!
Cass: Of course! It's only your first few days, so I understand there might not be too much to talk about it quite yet. Still, what, so far, has been the hardest part of your new job?
Jaqueta: Hm, at the moment I would say it's knowing that Gaele was a fantastic Chancellor and she left some big and beautiful shoes to fill ;) I'm hoping I can live up to her and do the role justice.
Cass: Aww, that is very sweet. I am sure she would be proud of you for taking the role and the responsibilities that come with it. I will miss her, but I am very excited to see how you will fill her shoes. Now for my favorite question...if you could switch jobs, what would you choose and why?
Jaqueta: Perhaps it sounds strange as I was just a Regent, but if I had to switch, I would return to being the Regent of Spain, I love my little carnations and I'm very proud of them all, I loved the role very much.
Cass: It sounds like you miss it already. Being a Regent must be wonderful, you are a role model for an entire country. I can imagine many people look up to their Regent's. To step away from talking about jobs, which can be boring, why don't you tell us something people may not know about you?
Jaqueta: Now that would be telling ;)
Cass: Oh my, oh my. Very secretive, aren't we? That's okay, we all have our secrets! We have time for one last question, so if you won't tell us a secret, what is one fun fact about yourself?
Jaqueta: I'm a pretty good dancer if I say so myself, Lorenzo can vouch for me.
Cass: Oooh, so many dancers out here! I love dancing as well, in fact, in my last blog I kind of bragged how I could totally out-dance a certain someone. Oh, it looks like we are flying down towards our last few seconds in this interview! Anything else you would like to tell our curious readers? Perhaps that secret your hiding?
Jaqueta: Yes, exam season is coming so work hard, get them done and just enjoy the summer break!
Cass: Oh, right. I forgot about the exams. Saddening you won't share your secret with us, but it would not matter because we are all out of time! Thank you for being here with us, Jaqueta! And good luck in your new role!
Jaqueta: Thank you, bye bye!

And that ends another fun edition of Getting to Know Your Staff! Thank you so much for reading! If you have any questions you want me to ask the next person we interview, send me a letter post! Or, if you have any ideas on how to get a secret out of someone, let me know! Bye!
