Liz Horton
Not many people tell Liz Horton what to
do. Liz often lets her emotional get the best of her, and she acts with
her heart instead of her head. In fact, once she almost lost her best
friend Mandy because of it. But when her father lost his job and they
ended up homeless, Liz began to soften up. Liz is a bit of a tomboy who
loves the mall, writing for the school newspaper and, of course, a good
argument.
Liz Horton has a mind of her own. She
arrived in Odyssey when she was much younger and has grown up a lot ever
since. In her beginning days, she was a selfish little brat, consumed
with having the last word and pulling pranks. However, as time passed,
she discovered that being a brat doesn't keep the right friends. Liz is
now a considerate citizen of Odyssey. She still has her stubborn streaks
and hot temper, but she suppresses it with the wisdom she has learned.
Originally, it was evident that Connie
didn't necessarily like Liz that much. Liz was constantly the brat that
caused problems. Now Connie and Liz are close friends. Liz's best friend
is Mandy Straussberg, with whom she has had some trouble, but not too
much.
Liz enjoys writing for the Odyssey Owl
newspaper in school and has written several reviews, articles, and other
things. At one point, Liz's family had to move out of their house
because of money problems, but the community was able to help them out a
bit.
Currently, Liz is a sympathetic young
lady, with experience teaching her valuable lessons about herself. Even
though she has made some poor decisions, she is able to learn from them.
Her outspokenness will never leave her, nor will her built-in
stubbornness.
