Biographies
Jordan - My name is actually Robert Jordan Mavrinac, but I prefer to be called Jordan, because things can get confusing when your father has the same first name as you. I'm 16, going on 17 in June, and, as you can see from my project, one of my many hobbies is tinkering with electronics. Other than that, I like to build various things and tweak them to add whatever whims come to mind. Of course, they don't usually end up working as I intended. Musically, I play the electrical bass guitar, and enjoy music involving a lot of it. My favourite genres included heavy metal and thrash metal, but I really like acid rock and breakbeat techno too. During the summer, I volounteer with the University of Windsor's youth camps with a wide range of children. After highschool I plan to go to the University of Windsor for Electrical or Computer Engineering, and from there, I've got no idea.
Lee-Ann - Hello, my name is Lee-Ann. I am 16 yrs. old and in gr. 11. My interests are mostly artistic. My pass-times include listening to music and reading. My music tastes include alternative rock, metal, thrash metal, and gothic rock. I particularly enjoy the Harry Potter series and the The Vampire Chronicles by Anne Rice, although I have only read the first 2 books of the latter. I have read Night and The Fifth Son by Elie Wiesel, and am looking forward to reading more of his books. I play the flute in the concert band at school and take belly dancing lessons. I also enjoy singing - I have taken singing lessons for more than 2 yrs, but I am currently not taking them. I enjoy visual arts and like to draw. I am not athletic and do not follow sports. I am currently in the International Baccalaureate program, a program that allows you to graduate with not only a standard diploma, but also an additional diploma that is accepted world-wide. I plan to take a fashion design course in college. In the future, I wish to have a custom-made gown and lingerie shop.
