I'm 15 years in the 10th grade and I go to HPIAM. I was born in 2/18/99. I have one little sister. I have lived in Los Angeles, California since i was 4-5 years old. I play for the school football team my position is wide receiver. I like to listen to any type of music and i like to laugh and act dumb around people that I'm comfortable with. I can also be shy sometimes. i just like to be around people that care about me and make good memories of this stage of my life.

Christopher Columbus

Christopher Columbus
Christopher Columbus was born in 1451 in Genoa, Italy. He was an explorer and navigator. He first voyages started as a teenager when he participated in trading voyages. In 1476 he nearly died when the voyage he was on was attacked by French privateers. He had one son with a woman named Felipa Perstrello. When Christopher moved to Spain his wife died, after that he had a second son in 1488. In 1492 he was rejected for not being able to get a three-ship voyage for discovery. In August of that same year he set sail with the three ships The Santa Maria, The Pinta, and The Nina. Thinking that he would find a shorter way to get to India he found instead what today is America. He died in May 20, 1506 still thinking that he found a short cut to Asia
