Hi my name is Elena, and I am in seventh grade here at Santa Barbara Middle School.

You may ask why I joined Teen Press--well, I've always been interested on how interviewers develop questions to ask about on hard subjects. But that's not the only reason I joined Teen Press; I think it will be a great experience to see how other people view a subject. I hope that this experience will make me see things in a whole new way.

In my free time I like to ride my bike, play soccer, and most of all to go to sleep. My favorite movie is The Wizard of Oz because its one of those films you could watch over and over again. My dream interview would be with Walt Disney because I would like to see his brilliant mind answer the unique questions that I would have in store for him.
