Valerie Tripp: Hello, my name is Valeria Tripp. When I was a kid people called me cheery baleery. And I do still like to be optimistic. It's kind of funny to have Trip, T-R-I-P-P as a last name because it's a verb, like fall down. But, trip also means a journey, and I do like to travel. So, I guess it is a good name for me.
