I'm Really not that Interesting....
Just a little bit about me... I'm a sophomore in high school, and this APUSH class is my very first AP class *ever*. I have to admit, I was scared going into it, but I quickly learned that there was nothing to be afraid of. I've been blessed with an amazing teacher and some really cool classmates, and the majority of our work is really fun! :-) As a homeschooler, I've had the opportunity to experience some really neat things over the years, like traveling to 30+ of our lovely United States. Having visited such historic sites as Pearl Harbor (Hawaii) and the home of the Wright Brothers (Michigan), I had quite a bit of background knowledge that would help me with this APUSH class.
My hobbies include: sailing (no, I'm not a pirate), writing (I prefer creative writing), watching the TV show Hawaii 5-0 (if you haven't seen it, your life is not complete), and hanging out with my friends. Oh yeah, and I love listening to music. Like all the time. :-) If you want to know what music helped get me inspired for this project, just follow these YouTube links to the tracks that I listened to while writing:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MwOdT4SmxTA (Yes, I LOVE Pirates of the Caribbean!) :-)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LN7JUIU1G50 (If you haven't seen it, the John Adams miniseries on HBO is fantastic! And the theme is obviously pretty great too.)
Something about "epic" music scores just helps me get in the mood to write. (I'm not really sure why.)
Well, that's about it.... Like I said, I'm really not that interesting! Anyways, this website isn't supposed to be about me. So what are you doing reading this lame bio when you could be reading the AWESOME one on the first page?!

P.S. I own the cover photos for this page, the "Bibliography/About Project" page and "Pictures" page, but the actual background photo (the mountain scene) isn't mine. Yes, that's me up there. ^^
