Pollyanna Seeks Humble Pie

Once upon a time there lived an eternal optimist with an eye for all things positive. Her name was Sareen and she lived right here in La Crescenta.

I am not sure I know anyone who completely enjoyed his or her high school experience, but Montrose local Sareen Hacopians confesses that was the mother of all good times. And dressed to impress with a creative edge to boot, this happy-go-lucky makes Debbie Downer look like a real disaster.

What are you doing here on this beautiful afternoon?

I am hanging out with my .

Do you live in Montrose? 

Yup. Right down the street here.

What do you do?

I work in medical transcription. I transcribe reports for insurance in Glendale, but I own my own company creating iPhone covers. It’s called Plush Paladin

Really? That’s so creative! That is a fun looking cover you have. What does it say? 

“All asses were not created equal.”

That’s really funny. Is it going well? 

Yeah, I think so. I get orders through Facebook, as well.

Did you go to school?

Yes. I went to CSUN. I have a Bachelors in Psych.

Did you go to high school here?

Yes... I went to .

How did you like it?

I loved it! I love CV!

Wow! You must have been popular then.

Not at all! Nobody knew I existed, but I loved the school.

That’s great. You may be the most positive person I have ever met! Do you think it is the same now as it was back then?

From what I have heard, I don’t think so.

What was it about the school that was so good?

I loved the freedom of it. I could be myself. I used to go to and I felt a lot of pressure there. It was bad. I prefer public schools. 

It is interesting because I don’t know many people that loved their high school experience. I know I didn’t. Are you single? 

Yes. And I love being single!

Wow. You are like the eternal optimist! What is your sign? 

I’m a Capricorn. 

They say Capricorns are really private and secretive, but I am not sensing that from you. Have you recently been in a relationship?

The last one I was in ended two years ago.

Was it good?

It was okay (laughs).

Why did it end?

We were very different.

Do you ever want to get married?

Someday. Hopefully.

Do you want ?

Yes, maybe one. 

What are the three top qualities you want in a man? 

Oh, Lord. I have never thought about it.

It’s never a bad time to start.

. Creative. Humble.

Are there a lot of humble men in Montrose? 

I have not met any yet. And it’s really disappointing!

What are men like in Montrose?

I don’t know because they are mostly married with families, I think.

Who is your celebrity crush?

That's a hard one. But I love Robert Downey, Jr.

No way! He is my , too! I guess we can share. What are some of your favorite places around here?

, , , …

What do you and your friends do for fun on the weekends?

We usually leave the area to go out. We go to Pasadena, Hollywood, downtown or the Griffin in Los Feliz.

Anything you want to add? 

I’m fabulous!
