Hello, Stormy and everyone else in this class with me.

My name is Esther Polk, but everyone calls me Star. Esther was my Great grandma’s name and my mom thought I should be the lucky one to carry on a family name. And NO I am not into synchronized swimming, nor do I have a swimsuit company.

Hmmm. Let’s see. What else can I really tell you? You know, I really hate these introductory bios. I don’t lead that interesting of a life. Really

I’m 17 years old and a junior in high school, well I would be, but I’m in what is known as 'Running Start'. A program for high school students to go to college in place of high school, there by getting our Associates degree at the same time we are getting our H.S. diploma.

I grew up in the Pacific North West, but two months ago, My parents, in their infinite wisdom decided to ruin my life by uprooting everything I have ever known and moved us to this desert no-man’s hole in the ground. :( I haven’t seen a rain drop the whole time I’ve been here. Daddy is a Radiology Tech and my mother is a hairstylist. They could get a job anywhere, and I still don’t know why they picked this spot in South West Utah. Of all the hot places to go, why couldn’t they pick somewhere like Phoenix, or San Diego, or even Las Vegas? No. They had to pick this tiny town.

Poor Puke is dying from the heat here. :( Oh, I should probably tell you. Puke is my Westie. Her real name is Lacey, but she has some kind of genetic eating disorder that caused her to throw up all over the place until we figured out that she needed a special diet. My brothers thought Puke was a better name for her and it unfortunately stuck. Anyway, with all of this heat, I had to take her down to the groomers and get the poor thing shaved. She is adorable, but looks so funny with out all of her fur. :)

Lets see... Oh yeah, you wanted to know our likes and dislikes. I like ice cream, especially chocolate, but I can’t indulge too often or else it will go to my hips. :(

I think I like lightening storms. We had one here last week, and man was it cool. We didn’t get lightening storms in Washington, just rain. but to see the lightening dancing around the sky was really cool.

Oh who can forget shopping. I LOVE to shop. The mall here is okay, not like back home, but there are a few interesting stores. I found the cutest outfit the other day. It was a pink cami with cute detailing on it, and I paired it up with a flowing white summer skirt. It goes great with my flip-flops, or I can dress it up with my healed sandals.

I like watching hockey. My older brother Leo plays hockey and it is really fun going to the games. Some of those players are so hot. They’re tough and cute. My mother says I really shouldn’t date anyone on my brothers team cuz it could cause problems, specially if I were to date someone on his line, which really sucks, because there is this one player, Mike who plays left wing, who is so gorgeous.

Dislikes. Well, I don’t like dishonesty. People who lie just plain suck. I don’t like one hundred degree weather which I’m finding out we get a lot here. :( Oh, and I don’t like old men who always seem to be checking me out or something. It is like totally gross. :(

So like I said, I don’t really have anything interesting to talk about.

See you all around.
