1 – Fun fact, I actually have a scar on my knee that I’ve had for about a year now. There’s pretty much a silly story that goes along with how I got it. One day, I was visiting my cousin’s house, and we went to take their dog on a walk. He is a MASSIVE goldendoodle named Happy, and I have no clue why they named him that. Anyways, during the walk he was being crazy and his leash accidentally scraped my knee. It’s left a mark ever since.
2 – Speaking of dogs, In my whole family we have 3 dogs in total! I have two and my cousins have one that I just talked about. In my house I have a Golden Retriever, named Boston, and a Shih Tzu, named Aspen, they’re both the complete opposites of each other! Boston is more of an energetic and SUPER playful dog, while Aspen is more of a laid-back and chill dog, though of course he also has his playful moments.
3 – Here is another fun fact about me! I was born and raised here in Virginia, but I’m originally from China. All of my family were born in China, and know how to speak Mandarin very fluently, but on the other hand my cousins and I only know how to speak a little bit of the language. The last time I visited my home town was when I was about 3 years old, so of course I don’t really remember anything of what it really looked like.
4 – Circling back to the pets topic, I’ve had many pets throughout my life, so you could say that I’m kinda an expert. I had a turtle and some fish when I was around the age of 5 years old. Just recently, my two parakeets named King and Chip unfortunately passed away. Now, that leaves me with just my two dogs that I’ve mentioned before. About my fish, I had this one large gray fish that started to eat the small goldfish and soon all my goldfish got eaten.
5 – My all time favorite food is Pho! There are many reasons why I’d pick Pho over any other food. First of all, It’s really flavorful and you can add so many different ingredients to it. For me personally, It brings back many of my childhood memories, such as when my parents would always take me to this one pho place for lunch and I would ALWAYS be super excited to go.
6 – Another fact that I have about myself is that I have a fear of the ocean. I wouldn’t say that I have a fear of the ocean itself but, instead I have a fear of what’s IN the ocean. Everytime I’d really think about the idea in general It makes me slightly uneasy. Although, I wouldn’t say that I’m deathly afraid of it. You may catch me boating from time to time on a river but I would NEVER ride a boat across the ocean!
7 – If I could live anywhere in the world I’d probably live in Canada. Of course there’s some pros and cons to Canada, such as cold temperatures which I’m not 100% too fond about BUT I’d always prefer it over extremely hot temperatures. I think the nature in Canada is very beautiful and that’s one of the main reasons why I’d want to visit and maybe live there one day. There’s many sights that I’d like to see such as Niagara Falls, Moraine Lake, and Jasper National Park!
8 – One kinda weird thing about me is that I don’t have a favorite singer or song. It’s a little weird since I always listen to music. There are some songs I listen to more than others of course but I don’t necessarily have a favorite one!
9 – My all time favorite subject In school would be History! Ever since 6th grade I’ve always found History to be a very interesting subject and there’s so much to learn about it. This year History has now shifted into Civics which I’m also looking forward to learning more about. One of the main reasons why this is my favorite subject is because we get to learn and discover about what happened long ago, and how countries have changed over time! I recall how I’d always enjoy listening to stories about the past from my former teachers.
10 – Lastly, my final fact is that I LOVE action movies! The thrill of watching and action based movies just gets me on the edge of my seat every time. A few of my favorites are Marvel, DC, or just animated action movies. Anything with a good plot and is thrilling will usually catch my attention pretty quickly! My parents are also pretty big fans of Superhero movies. I remember that when I was younger me and my parents would always have a BUNCH of movie nights where we’d go late into the night and watch action movies.
Hello Abigail!
This is Brenna!
I notice that a lot of other students in this class that I know seem to have pets also, just like you. I think that’s pretty cool! I can relate to you on this because I also don’t have a favorite singer or music artist, I listen to many different genres and still have much to learn about them. I also really love dogs, and I noticed you have three of them! I really wish I had three dogs also…
I did notice you have a pet fish too, I just wanted to let you know that my blog is very much centered around fish! If you want to look at it, I feel like we could find something common between each other!

Personally, I would want to live in Canada as well. Niagara Falls is a beautiful place, and it’s fun to visit all the tourist attractions. When I went to Canada for vacation, I stayed in a hotel room with a good view of the falls. I haven’t been to any national parks there, but if I get the chance to go back to Canada, I’ll definitely check the parks out.
I also talked about moving to Canada in my post, feel free to check it out 🙂

Hi Abigail!
Love your facts. I didn’t know you had dogs! I have dogs, too. Crazy ones, that’s for sure. One is named Maisy, a dachshund and cairn terrier mix. Very dramatic, indeed. The other is named Olive, a bluetick coonhound! She is a very big girl, and had 11 puppers. Anyway, come check out my blog! Link: https://blogs.lcps.org/joannasuniverse/
Hey Abigail!
I read through your blog and it was very interesting! I saw you paragraph about how you have a scar on you knee that you’ve had for awhile. I aswell have a scar on my hip from running and tripping from socks…LOL
I would give you my blog to read to see a time I once broke a bone, but…I havent written my yet! Awesome blog!!
Hi, Santi
I also have a scar but I have it on my eyebrow. You can barely see it. I had to get stitches because it got hit with a ball when I had my glasses on and a part of my glasses is like metal so it scraped it.
It would be a pleasure if you would go look at my blog!
Hi Abigail, I loved your blog it was so interesting to read your blog, History was also my favorite subject which now is Civics and english. I found something similar in your blog as mine which is fearing of the ocean.
