Hello

Hello,
My name is Michelle and I'm 15 years old. Many people tell I'm very shy and quiet, but I believe I'm very observant. I go to Nova High school in Davie,Fl and am in the 10th grade. I'm in a lot of extracurricular activities, such as Environmental Club and Drama Club. I hold positions in two clubs: Relay for life-publicity officer and Book Club - Vice President. I also do swimming and water polo in school. I volunteer at an animal shelter during the summer or when I have free time. I am also a threadbanger and am learning how to sew. I also a have a love for for Japanese culture, from anime to the lolita fashion to BJDs(Ball-jointed dolls). My life goal is to be able to help others whether human or animals. I am studying many difficult subjects(including online classes like Chinese) with this goal in mind and in to hope to become a marine mammal vet. I also have a passion for sewing and BJDs.

I am currently playing Sonic Unleashed for PS3 and Animal Crossing: City Folk for Wii. Sonic Unleashed isn't the best game ,but it's full of plenty fun running and actiony moments. Animal Crossing is quite a different game compared to Sonic Unleashed, because of its relaxing pace. Animal Crossing is fun for playing another a different way of life. It sometimes hard to pick between the two when I have time to relax.

My favorite media experience I have is threadbanger.com. It's a websites which teaches others how to sew through reuse of material. It's really meaningful for me because I always have wanted to learn sew since I was little. I also like that it teaches you how to reuse material so we learn to express ourselves better, be able to afford it, and not take up more space in our landfills.The people on website's forum are very help as are the people who run the website.

I've noticed lack of effort in people helping out in the community. Some people showed interest but were intimated by older students or the people show any interest at all. I have join some of these clubs myself(such as relay for life) and proud to see more freshman joining clubs. I like to be able to promote interest through media.

I hope to contribute to DOTCOM program workshop with my experience of my numerous clubs. My numerous experiences can help me see things from different points of view. I believe this can help understand and empathize others points. I also have a lot of patience when listening to others. So when I need to make decision, I hopely will prove to be less basis.
