Just call me Abby. It's what I go by. :)

I'm a freshman this year. High school is definitely different. I love swimming. It's pretty much my whole life! :D

I have two younger brothers, Sam is twelve, in the Junior High, and Charlie, who's three, in preschool. I'm the oldest.. and the only girl. :\ My mom teaches high school Psychology and U.S. History. My dad co-owns his own business with my grandpa. I tend to be really quiet and shy when you first meet me.

My favorite writer would probably be my friend, Andy. She has a gift for writing and is seriously talented. I always love when she shows me the latest thing she has been working on. (:

Something else about me is that I'm a really family oriented person. I love to spend time with my family, friends too. They're like my second family. (

Memorization Poem:

__Fireflies in the Garden __
Here come real stars to fill the upper skies,

And here on earth come emulating flies,

That though they never equal stars in size,

(And they were never really stars at heart)

Achieve at times a very star-like start.

Only, of course, they can't sustain the part.
