| My name is Shandy Wogan. I go to school in Red Earth Creek, Alberta and am in grade nine. When I finish school, I plan to go to university to be a doctor or an anthropologist, or something along those lines (My mum is Diabetic, hense my interest in the medical field). I am an Irish/Canadian citizen and I listen to a wide varity of music, mostly indi or classic rock. I like to read, write, play the piano, hang out with my awesome friends and family, and watch a few choice TV shows (I proudly own all seven seasons of Buffy). My favorite subjects are English and Science and my favorite colors are red, green, brown, and indigo. I am extremly accident prone, to the point that my teachers renamed Band-Aids Shand-Aids. As for acheivements; I was accepted to the Alberta Writers Guild Youthwrite last year and have had several of my poems published. This year I won Best in Fair and Overall Life Sciences for my project "The Effects of Energy Drinks on Teenagers" at the Peace Country Regional Science Fair, and I have won first place in our local science fair for the last five years. |
