|---|
| I am a grade nine student at Bert Bowes middle school and have been doing Science Fair for nearly all my life. My favorite subjects in school are Chemistry, Astronomy and P.E. I largely enjoy sports, especially basketball, badminton and hockey. The reason I did the project that I did is because I wanted to work on solving a problem bigger than myself. Also, I have always been very interested in Mars and the idea that not a single person has been on that entire planet. Although one of my main passions is Science Fair, my dream is to become an author with my books selling across the globe. I have gone to Canada Wide two times before this and they were boyhood changing experiences. I love to hang out with my amazing group of friend's whom of which I know will always be my pals. |
