My name is Erika, I'm 16 years old, 17 on Sunday! and I live in Canberra, Australia.
I was born in Sydney but moved to France when i was about 3 weeks old
and lived there for 8 months. After that I moved to India,I stayed
there for about 3 years and then moved back to Australia for a little
while. After that I moved to Canada for 3 months and then moved around
some of Europe for a little while. After that my parents decided to
settle in the Philippines, where my mum is from, for about 2 years, and
when I was 10 we moved back to Australia, again. I've been here ever
since.
Until I moved back to Australia, permenently, I have never set foot in
an actual school, my parents had me home schooled because we travelled
around so much. I never fully understood why we moved around so much,
my parents like to travel but it also might have had somethig to do
with my dad's job, he's a psychologist with the Air Force in Australia,
or at least he was, now he works in the psychiatric ward at Calvary
Hospital here in Canberra.
I have two little brothers, they're pains in the ass, and I'm not going
to say I still love them, because well, I don't really, well the
littler one is cute, but that's about it.
Currently I go to Copland College, here in Canberra college is the last
two years of High School you get lots of freedom, and more respect from
the teachers as we're encouraged to call them by their first name. High
School goes for 4 years and then we move to an entierly different
school for College, in a way it makes you more mature in your last year
of High School because you're the Seniors so you have to set an
example, no other state in Australia has a schooling system like ours,
I wouldn't have it anyother way. I'm studying English, Photography,
Japanese, Chemistry and Biology. Next year I'll be taking up French and
another English class, then I might do International Studies in
University or Medicine, or Journalism. I don't know what.
I have a boyfriend, we have been dating for 14 months and I love him to
pieces! He's the most fundementally decent person I've ever met, funny,
gorgeous, and an absolute genius and I'm not just saying that or being
biased, he is a freaking genius.We work so well together, in the whole
14 months that we've been dating we're yet to have a fight, which
freaks me out, but the reason we don't fight is because we're always
open to compromise and we think so much alike, we even make corny jokes
in unicent.
Um, what else? English is not my first language, but learning was made
easier for me because it was my dad's first language and he read to me
in English sometimes when I was little, he also taught me French. But
I'm not as fluent as i used to be, that's why I'm taking it up next
year and It's an easy A. I'm obsessed with Japan and Japanese street
fashion, although I'd never seriously consider dressing that way, I do
love to look at it. I love Japanese food too and ate so much when I was
there last year with my High School.
I guess that's it.
Bye!
