Just turned 17 on august 15th. My favorite place to be has got to be Disneyland. I'm a HUGE Dr. Pepper/chocolate fan. I have a 9 week old chocolate lab puppy named Charlie and I love him SO much!! I'm a BIG animal lover. My favorite thing to do this summer was going to the beach all the time and having bonfires (except I hated how terrible I would smell from the fire afterwards). I've been playing piano since I was two years old and I have started teaching little kids how to play, so music is an important part of my life. I love my family, even though they are incredibly embarrassing. I love any movie Shia Labeouf is in, especially Disturbia. Oh, and I went to private school my whole life up until high school. That's all I can think of right now!
music plays an enormous part of my life i love classic rock or anything with a sound that i can dig, and will be seeing the who in november as well as bob dylan this saturday!!!
i love original star trek with william shatner, and my heroes are Sean Connery, Steve McQueen, and Humphrey Borgart
i take great interest in history, especially that which surrounds the Civil War and WWII
i am a member of the prestigious El Dorado Wrestling team
i look forward to a great senior year and will be a whole lot happier as soon as its over!
Natalia Makoveeva, 16 years old, and will be for another half of the year. Probably one of the youngest seniors ever =)
I don't have any siblings, sometimes I think it is bad, sometimes I thank God for that I don't have any. My family is my mom - and her "marito", but we don't really communicate with him, so I don't know what he really is in person. I am from Russia, and I have lived there all my life except for the last two years I've been here. I miss my relatives. I don't watch TV, so there isn't much I could tell about TV shows...but I like to read, especially specific literature. I love learning foreign languages and communicating with people around the world, thanks to the internet. Most of my free (and other time when I'm supposed to do something else) I sit in front of the computer writing in blogs and chatting with online friends. I'm interesting in many different fields, so probably it wouldn't be the best thing to write all my interests here. I like to write a lot, and if I won't stop now it would be about two microsoft word pages here without anything specific written... I think I made the right choice taking this class and my interests in politics and what is related to it will be fulfilled.
I'm Becca Wicks. I'm 17 and will be 18 in February. I live with my parents, grandpa, and two sisters. Theatre is what I do. I've been in plays, commercials, musicals etc since I was two. AP US History made me incredibly interested in government and politics and I plan on going to UC Berkley to major in journalism and minor in political science. Sometimes I let my life get incredibly full of activities and stressed out. I take several AP classes, have a job, and spend a majority of my time in the theatre. I listen to classic rock and showtunes, basically a very strange mix of music. Because I know it will come up in conversation at some point, I have had rheumatoid arthritis since 7th grade. Its definitely one of the more interesting facts about me. Basically, I'm very opinionated and love politics. I also can't wait to graduate.
My name is Jessica Lynn Montano. I am 16 years old and I will be 17 Oct. 22. Soccer is my life. I am a goalkeeper and play everday. I hope to go play soccer in college. I love movies and music. My favorite movies are A Walk to Remember, American History X and What Happens in Vegas. I listen to mostly rock, pop, and some hip hop. I am super opinionated and tend to be loud. I love eating but hate cooking. I love mexican food and in 'n out. I live with my mom, dad, and my brother. My brother is a freshman this year and my mom graduated from El Dorado class of '85. And thats pretty much it. "]
My name is Danika Hazen and I'm a bando. I play the flute and marching season pretty much consumes my life all first semester. I have an older sister and two twin freshmen younger brothers (please be nice). I love to read and I eventually want to learn all the romance languages (I already know Spanish pretty well and some French). I have no idea where I want to go to college or what I want to major in. My favorite author is Jane Austen and I love the VIctorian Era. I have a slight Batman obsession. I also really, really want to go to England. That's all I can think of for the moment. Good day.
my name is Kody Fairfield i am 17 and will be 18 on Sept. 14. Im very opinionated, and competitive. I like sports and im involved in the baseball program at eldo as a pitcher. I have 2 siblings one brother camron (15) and one sister Tiffani (20). I live with my mom and siblings. Ive had most of my family go through el dorado, they were my dad and his 2 brothers, my cousins, and my older sister. my favorite things to do are play sports, hang with my friends, and just laugh. Im not quite sure what i want to study in college but im interested in politics and sports medicine. i am looking forward to this class and it seems like its going to be a lot of fun.
My name is Christian Tellez. I'm 17 my birthday is at the end of April. my family is from Nicaragua I'm one of the only people in my family that was born in the U.S. I have one sister named Cassandra she is 5 and very annoying. I love spending time with my family and friends and i love listening to music. I love to learn new things and read. i love tootsie rolls they are my favorite candy. I'm learning how to drive but i don't like to. thats pretty much it I'm looking forward to this class! :]
The Name is Andrew Alexander Tekulve. I was born in the good year of our Lord, 1991, to a loving family of four siblings, me being the youngest. I will be seventeen years young on November 18th.
One could argue that I am just an ordinary boy, but I must admit i am FAR from ordinary. I enjoy listening to different types of music and i also enjoy writing tunes and such. Although i am not too learned with musical composition, i still enjoy writing.
I also am a fan of film-making and cinematography, as i participate in Hawk Talk and EDHS Media Productions. I plan on majoring on film making after I graduate high school.
My favorite movie happens to be The Warriors, and I am not sure why. It's just something about that movie. My favorite book would definitely be Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. My favorite genre of music would be Indie or Indie Rock, but eighties New Wave and eighties Dance music hold a very special place in my heart.
And that's all she wrote....
