| Hey, my name is Robyn Vivian, and I am a 14 year old ninth grade honours student at Pearce Junior High School in Burin, Newfoundland. I am an avid reader- I have an especial weakness for fantasy and dystopian novels. I am quite competitive, am very particular with regards to grammar, and I have a tendency to talk a lot! I love music; I play piano, and my favorite band is Shinedown. My favorite subject in school is English, and I live for school speak-offs and regional drama festivals every year- I received an award for acting in 2011. I am co-chair of our school’s Booster Club, a member of our Book Club, and a tutor in our school’s student tutoring group. I also compete on our school’s math league- our team has received first in our division in both the 2011 and 2012 regional competitions. I love participating in Science Fairs. This will be my first time attending a national fair, and I can’t wait! |
