Carren

About Me:
I am home schooled, but I take my classes on the Internet with different teachers. I live in Woodville, Florida (right outside of Tallahassee) with my Mom. I've only met my dad once when I was about 11, and the visit only lasted about 45 minutes, so I don't remember much about him. I also live with my dog, Isabel, and a bunny named "Mr. Bun Bun." I can't complain about being an only child because we live with 4 family friends in our house, too.

Hobbies:
I like reading, watching movies, talking on the telephone, and eating pizza. My favorite and most common hobby, though, is learning. I have to stay busy, so I work a lot too, volunteering at our local elementary school.
