Edmonds, WA, U.S.A.

My life is pretty cool here in Washington. I started Junior High a month and a half ago and it has been pretty fun. I know some new people and I just go with the flow.

Well, it is getting colder as we enter the fall season, but we all enjoy it. It rains a lot here and we have a lot of mountains. It hardly ever snows, but last winter we got about 5 years worth of snow.

I live near the water and we have a few beaches, but they are very tough to play on and we hardly ever swim in the ocean here. My town is big, but the neighborhoods are sometimes so spaced apart, it seems like it is very small.

Everybody is freaked out about the H1N1 flu, and my school was talking about closing because there have been many kids absent. The flu season is full swing right now, so people always say, "Wash your hands!!!" They are right.

The style's here right now are skinny jeans, and cinched plaid shirts. I don't like to follow the style, and I just wear jeans and a shirt. Well, I think that's all!
