My name is Paula Thi Vo. I’m fifteen, January 17th. I’m currently going to high school. I am a FOB. I lived in VietNam for two years, which affects me. I have horrible grammar, but I’m kind of okay with spelling. Three more months, I wouldn’t have been born in the United States.

Well, I live in the east coast. I’m actually going to a nice school which seems “ghetto” by a lot of people. It’s called South High. But it really isn’t that bad. It’s better than most schools, that’s all I know. It’s really fun in high school. There are those moments where you go “I hate school”, but school for me is the best thing. I see the people I love, the people I hate, the people I talk to, the people in my class, and more.

I live in the white/black neighborhood. I also live close to the partial ghetto place. But it’s actually an old place. There are old buildings which are getting remodeled. I like living here, but my parents are always complaining to me about moving me to CT or VietNam.

Elementary, Middle School, & High School has done a lot to me. I’ve met new people, but they’re all older than me. I’ve seen old people, who currently go to middle schools or actually going to schools close to me. It’s weird as I grow up and looking at the people around me. I honestly rather be alone mostly than have people around me. It’s better to contain how I feel than tell them without having any problems. 

It’s fun growing up actually. But I want to stay young for a while. Everything changes as you grow older. I’m not really the ones who wish to be older all the time. I want to be younger actually. Be young with the knowledge I have now. It’ll be much better for me honestly. And most likely fun, but then again it’s going to be a pain. People don’t know the answer and you do, but the teacher won’t let you answer it.

I love to sing. I’m currently practicing vocalizing for these people. I only can do fast songs. Slow songs take me time to do because my pitch will get higher and higher or deeper and to the point where you can barely hear me. I need to adjust it whenever I sing slow songs. I cannot do acapella. I’m really horrible at it. But I’ll eventually learn how to.

I love to write. I make my own stories. I write whenever I’m feeling down usually. They tend to be romance. There are times where I’m making nonfictional stories. But mine are mostly fictional. Sometimes they’re based on my school life.

I hate physical contact to be honest. I love to give people hugs. I’m usually the one making physical contact. But I hate when people touch me. I don’t give a fuck on who they are. If I am not in the mood for physical contact, even if I love you.
