About a girl

Hey! I am going to dedicate this blog post to someone very important: myself! Mr. Mark, my computer teacher has asked our class to make a blog post that has three whole paragraphs about themselves. Right now, I'm not sure what I can say. Well, first of all my name is Fernanda (but people call me Feris). I was born in Mexico City in September. Right now, I live in a small town called Puerto Vallarta. My family and I moved here because my dad works in an offshore marine as the director. Puerto Vallarta is on the Pacific Coast, and it is very different from Mexico City. Here it is humid, hot and surfing, windsurfing, kiting and fishing are common sports. The town is small and there are hardly any buildings, meaning people mostly live in houses. There are plenty of trees and palm trees. In Mexico City, it is cold there are a LOT of buildings, pollution and there are almost no trees. Here (in Vallarta) people usually wake up at 6 or 7 a.m. Kids like me go to private schools from 8:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. We have subjects like English, history, Spanish, computers, art, physical education, science, algebra, health and music. After school we go home and eat at around 3:00 p.m. Common foods include vegetables, salads, meat, fish, chicken, tacos and soups. My favorite food is Japanese, and there are many Japanese restaurants here. During weekdays I do my homework, take tennis and French and I am also on the school play, so I go to rehearsals.

During weekends, I go to the beach, the movies and parties. The last movie that I saw was called "2012" and I tough it was really good. I also saw "New Moon" last Friday. I am a Twilight fan, and of course I was delighted when it came out. I prefer Jacob over Edward because he would never leave Bella alone like Edward did. This weekend we had a break since it was Thanksgiving. During Thursday, we only had school until 12 but for me it didn't count as school since it was only the Talent Show. I was in the Show with two friends called Ximena and Courtney. We sang "Love Me" by Justin Beiber. I had a real fun time doing it, but I was so nervous because the whole school was looking at me. The hardest thing was finding the karaoke version of the song. The best act in the whole show was four male teachers dancing in tight suits to Beyonce's "Single Ladies". I know it sounds crazy, but I guess that's the way we are in Mexico (loud, fun and wild). Well after the talent show, I went to a small restaurant called "Ensaladas y Baguettes (Salads & Baguettes)" and then I went to the grocery store with my sister. On Saturday I made Christmas decorations with my sister and I had SO much fun! I love Christmas, It is one of my favorite holidays. This year, family from all over Mexico is flying in to celebrate it here with us. It doesn't snow, and in fact it is how so Christmas is not what you probably picture. Still, we put on our Christmas tree, we bake turkey and we exchange presents. This year, I asked for a laptop and I'm very excited.

I have a lot of other "favorites". My favorite food is Japanese, my favorite color is pink, the best meal (according to me) is a special rice, my favorite TV Show is Gossip Girl, my most liked book is The Truth About Forever by Sarah Dessen. My prefered songs are Black Keys, Fly With Me (Jonas) and Unwritten (Natasha Bedingfield). I know it might seem so ordinary, but I LOVE the Jonas Brothers. I just went to their concert in Halloween and got to meet them personally. Seriously, it was a great experience and they have great voices. I can't wait 'till Christmas and I also want it badly to be the 11Th because I am going on a trip to Yelapa, a small island. I am going with a group of girls from this school (Called American School) and a teacher (Miss Teri Jo) who is the coolest person ever! Well, it is almost time for me to go so I have to wrap things up OK? Well bye!
