My First Teenage Party

I attended my very first boy-girl party when I was 14 years old. I still remember that day very clearly. I did not know how to dance and so were my friends. After watching our seniors dance their butt away, we went into one of the vacant bedrooms of our friend’s house to practice dancing…

My Camping and Hiking Days

During my teenage years, I was a very active girl who loved to do everything outdoor, from cycling to camping, hiking, swimming, running, tree-climbing, mountain climbing, snorkeling and traveling.
