Hello, my name is Lisa. I am 13 years old and, currently, in 8th grade at Briggs Middle School (the COOL school!). I am involved the Visual and Dramatics Arts program, or V.A.D.A.! My favorite classes are Drama, Art (go Mr. Hass;) and Media!
I’m pretty much a normal kid, except one day soon I’m going to be…a SUPERSTAR!!! (Ha ha ha) My hobbies include acting, drawing, singing (I’m pretty good!), playing the piano (that I’m really good at!), reading, (anything but Redwall!!!) and… (Of course, as I am a teen) talking on the phone. I also LOVE to listen to music! My favorite bands include Alkaline Trio, Erasure, *screams* Gorillaz, Gunderson, Hot Hot Heat, The Misfits, Nellie McKay (he he he, *ahem* couple ‘o inside jokes about her song, David. he he he) O-zone, the all mighty Queen, Venga Boys (boom boom boom!!!;) and many, many more (that’s all that’s on my Ipod right now).

I also love the outdoors!!! My family and lots of our family friends go rafting a lot! In fact we mostly base our summers around permits and such, but that’s ok, I absolutely love that too! I have been rafting since I was about 6. My twin (love ya Mindy;) and I always cracking fun jokes about me being true blue Rafting scum!!! We also go camping a lot; we have all the gear! I was super happy to get a 20+-degree sleeping bag for Christmas (although it could have been 0+;)!

I am so SUPER excided for A3!!! It’s going to be awesome! I know, I know, you all probably all think I’m a ditsy teen who is totally wrapped in my social life that she doesn’t think school is important; well I’m not!!! I really value my education. I really like to act but I didn’t know anything about drama till I started 8th grade! I think that A3 will take me above and beyond what I would ever learn elsewhere. Plus it will also teach me other fun stuff, like how to make movies and documenters (oh yes, the power!!!;).

Well thanks for reading my rant! Please consider A3; it will be SUCH a great experience for anyone who really loves the arts!
