Name: Laura
Nicknames: Chiggers (abbreviated), Chigger Wiggers (my dad makes up the wierdest nicknames)
Birthday: December 2, 1990 (hint: I have no problem with presents)
Age: 12
Nationality: American, but I'm Cantonese by blood (it's kind of complicated to explain) You could say that I'm Chinese-American.
Hometown: Hong Kong Island, China (don't know where that is? Go find it!)
Siblings: younger brother, Ryan, 9
Best Friend: Antonia
Languages I know: English (duh; what am I writing in?), Mandarin & I can understand some Cantonese, but I can't speak it.
Appearance: 5"1, really wavy Brown-black hair (not blue-black) that goes about an inch & a half below my shoulders, brown eyes, glasses & very tanned skin. I basically look like your average Asian person. Chinese people do NOT have pale gothic-type skin as some people believe.
Pets: my Bichon Frise that I got as a X-mas present 2 years ago, a hamster, 2 lovebirds & a finch.
