Life Is My Substance

by Shawna (Alimanu), age 13

I like to read anime and manga. I also enjoy drawing, playing volleyball, and playing the clarinet. I enjoy these activities because it helps to relieve some of my stress. I also have a sun conure, who is like my best friend. Each time her cage gets dirty I clean it up for her. I also enjoy jogging, which also helps me to relieve some of my stress.
