| My name is Nathan Euteneier. I am 14 years old and in grade 9 at Greenall High School in Balgonie, SK . I live on a grain farm near Kronau, SK. I help around the farm doing anything from fixing and operating the equipment to cleaning the bins. I play school basketball as well as community ball. During my spare time I like to camp or swim, I generally like being in the outdoors. The games I like to play are mainly logic games. I belong to a youth group at my local church and am usually involved in its weekly activities. In school, my favourite subjects are math and science. I like working with my hands, taking apart and rebuilding stuff like small engines and laptops. I also enjoy snowmobiling in the winter and quading in the summer. I enjoy reading and hanging out with friends. Once I graduate high school I plan in going to university to become an engineer or a veterinarian. |
