Biography |
---|
My full name is John William Stewart MacMillan. I am fifteen years old, and I live in Miramichi, New Brunswick. I am a Grade 10 student at Miramichi Valley High School, but I am currently taking Grade 12 courses in mathematics and Java programming. I play the piano at RCM level 8, violin at level 7, and alto saxophone in my school's band. I am also a member of the school's drama club and junior varsity volleyball team. After finishing high school, I plan to study medicine; I will look into the fields of radiology and neurology, and choose one of these two specialties. I may also take a theatre course and begin acting part-time after a few years of working in my chosen medical field. I have won several awards in public speaking, mathematics competitions, music festivals, use of technology, and overall academic excellence. |
