Who am I and Why Should U Care
hello world. my name is Shelby Maria Thompson, and i am the 13 year old daughter of two traveling diplomats. Many of you might ask, what is a diplomat...it's basicaly a person who works for the government, traveling around to different countries that no one else wants to go to, doing work, that very few other people want to do. A very rewarding career indeed...well, that's what my parents say. As of now, I have moved approxiamtley 9 times, and have lived in 6 different countries, and have gone to 8 different schools. Quite a bit for a 13 year old girl to handle, huh? Well, you get used to it after a while. Right now i am living in Baku, Azerbaijan. Now i want all of yu to go and find that on a map...you have 1 minute. Go. tick tock tick tock tick tock. Ok, now how many of you were actually able to find it. I take it not too many, right? Well, it's a tiny country right above Iran and right beside the United Arab Emerites. Now go and try to find it again. Well done. That tiny placed that you've just found on the map is where i have spent the last two years of my loney existence. Well, I haven't been alone exactly per say. I hav my parents, and a little brother who is three years younger than i am. A joy, i know. I just finished the 8th grade at TISA (The International School of Azerbaijan), and i passed every single subject. Sure, i didn't have the best grades in the class, but i was close enough. If advanced math wasn't hard enough, i barely cut the grade in I.T (computers, etc). Man i hated that class. Wait...hate is much to strong a word. Let's just say that i extremly disliked that class w/all of my heart, and i wish that it had never existed. i would have given my left arm to haveen able to not take that class. Wait, i am right handed, so if i wanted to get alot of sympathy and no homework, i should give my right arm instead. The depth of my thinking is absolutley amazing, now isn't it? Well, now we are getting to the why should you care part of the title. In reality, there is really no true reason why u should, but i do, so i guess that everyone else should too :)
