Behind Corey Werner’s big frame is an even bigger heart. Until people get to know Corey, they could never imagine the type of person he really is.
The WHB sophomore seems like a bad kid to most people because he is often in ISS or just not at school at all. However, those who know Corey know that he is much different then how he appears. He’s really just a big teddy bear. In fact, most people call him “Corebear.”
When interviewing WHB students about their opinions of Corey, they all replied the same: they love him. Junior Toni Bakker said, “Oh, Corebear has the biggest heart ever! He is like a big mush. I just want to squeeze him all the time.”
Sophomore Taylor McIntyre agreed, “I love that he’s so nice and lovable, that he makes the stupidest comments without even realizing, that he is always fun to hang out with, and that he always buys me food!”
Two of the reasons Corey is so loved are his great personality and his ability to make everyone laugh. Junior Mateo Torres echoed this statement saying, “I like how he’s always comical even though his eyes are never open. He reminds me of the Michelin man and that makes me smile.”
Sophomore Joe Mileti also loves Corey for his humor. “I love everything about Corey, especially how funny he is. He does the funniest things without knowing he’s being funny.”
Everyone loves Corey Werner for who he is and wouldn’t change anything at all about him. Joe Mileti said it best, “I would not change anything about Corey, he is meant to be a certain way for a reason. He’s awesome just the way he is.”
Corey Werner’s awesomeness shouldn’t be taken away from him just because he is not interested in school. Corey hopes for a better life when he’s older and a beautiful wife. He should have no problem finding a wife as he claims his blue eyes make him “attractive to all women.”
Chances are if you know Corey you love him and if you don’t you should get to know him. As junior T.J. Murphy put it, “Corey Werner — what don’t you love about him.”
