Me

I'm a senior in high school. I am seventeen years old but i will be eighteen in October. I've been wanting to attend this school since the fifth grade, but I didn't know about the academic program until my freshman year. So thats that. I like anything Chinese. I started liking the culture since I was about six because both my mom and dad liked the culture. So by the time I got to high school I began to learn Chinese. This summer, I was selected for a scholarship to study abroad in China for six weeks. I lived with a host family and got to improve my speaking, comprehension and writing the language. I was also able to know more about modern China as well as the history and culture. Besides Chinese, writing poems, short stories, reading, dancing, listening to classical rock, and laughing are my favorite things to do. Halloween is my favorite holiday and autumn is my favorite season. My ideal weekend is staying in the house while its raining, reading non-stop, and drinking tea. I don't know how to ride a bike (i know, shocking), and I am too afraid to drive a car so  I will forever be a pedestrian. I have seven siblings (an older brother, three older sisters, a little sister and two little brothers) and I am basically the middle child. I have two nieces and three nephews. My plans for college is to double major in Comparative Literature and Chinese and to minor in Creative writing. I eventually want to become a college professor. Meanwhile, i want to study abroad in China as much as possible.  So yeah...
