Hi, my name is Shari.  I am a seventh grader at Selah Intermediate School in Selah, Washington.  I chose this project because of my mother's job and I was concerned about my health after reading about how early heart disease can start.

I was 13 years old at the time of this project and live with my parents.  I also have two older brothers.  I enjoy spending time with my friends, surfing the net, and suprisingly so, reading.  I like to make my friends laugh and I am also a person who likes to laugh a lot,though some people think I am really easily amused.  I am very talkative and love the phone, in fact, the phone is usually busy at my house because of me.  I enjoy soccer and writing parodys.

After I graduate from high school I would like to go to college (especially somewhere on the east coast) in hope of becoming a pediatrician or lawyer specializing in business law.  If those don't work out another interest of mine might be an orthodontic career or an advertising agent, but if I could just win the lottery or win on some fabulously easy game show then I guess I wouldn't have to work.
