Well my name is Ryan and I am 16 years old (2-9-82). I live in Va Beach wich can be quite boring but at other times a lot of fun. Growing up with a name that is for a boy has been quite an adventure! In elementary school I never really had any boys named Ryan in my class but in 7th grade I did.By
the time I got to High School things weren't much better- I had another Ryan in my Bio class in 9th grade. This past year ( 10th ) I had 2 other boy Ryans, myself, and a Brian in my math class. Speaking of school I go to Kempsville High, I will be a junior and I am part of the Class of 2000. Well I am the oldest of 5 kids. I drive my 95 Honda stick Civic and I work at a Florist. We also have a Great Dane named Nina! I love being outside- I am not an indoor person. I will do anything outside- well almost anything! Thats the cliff notes on me :o)

As Smash Mouth says, " You might as well be walkin on the sun!" ( when they came here they were great1) when you come to Va Beach. From the beach to Willamsburg there are a lot of things to see and do. Lets start our journey at the ocean front.

At the Ocean front you can stroll down the strip, visit the MANY gift shops which in my opinion are tourist traps, are you in the mood for a good scare? how about the haunted house or wax museum- I have never been in the haunted houses so I don't know how they are, you can get an old time photo taken, then of course there is the Boardwalk where you can ride bikes- skate(roller, NO SKATE BOARDS, a dumb law)- run, or walk as you take in the ocean, and if you are at the OCEANfront why not take a dip? The mayjor beaches are the oceanfront, Sand Bridge , and there is another one that is mostly locals- I can't think of the name. If the beach gets old hop onto 44 and stop by the BIG HILL OF TRASH we like to call Mount Trashmore. If you are here around the 4th stay for fire works! Moving along you can go to Down Town Norfolk for museums and Water Side. About 45 minutes later and after going across a bridge you will arive at Busch Gardens and Water Country- 2 really nice parks. If you come to VA DON't leave with out stopping there. An hour after that is Kings Dominion where there is a water park within the amusement park- this one is fun if you are into the roller coaster scene like myself! Well there is Va Beach and surounding areas in a capsule!

Weather
Some days are yellow.
Some are blue.
On different days I'm different too.
You'd be suprised how many ways I change on different colored days.
On bright Red Days how good it feels to be a horse and kick my heels!
On other days I'm other things.
On bright Blue Days I flap my wings.
Some days, of course, feel sort of brown.
Then I feel slow and low, low down.
Then comes a Yellow Day.
And, I am a busy, buzzy bee.
Gray Day...
Everything is gray.
I watch.
But nothing moves today.
Then all of a sudden I'm a circus seal!
On my Orange Days that's how I feel.
Green Days.
Deep deep in the sea.
Cool and quiet fish.
That's me.
On Purple Days I'm sad.
I groan.
I drag my tail.
I walk alone.
But when my days are Happy Pink it's great to jump and just not think.
Then come my Black Days.
MAD.
And loud.
I howl.
I growl at every cloud.
Then comes a Mixed - Up Day.
And WHAM!
I don't know who or what I am!
But it all turns out all right, you see.
And I go back to being...
me.

The weather here is great! Hurricanes always miss- Knock on wood -, its hot in the summer, cold in the winter, and just right in between!
London!!!!!
Well last summer I was given the chance to go to London for a week, well I went and had a great time! Here is the camp that took me :
http://www.uncg.edu/cex/allarts.html
We stayed in a an old "mansion" that was turned into a hotel. It was a small place and many of us did not care for it but we still had fun! One example of the old small hotel is that when you walked into the bathroom everything was right there, I have pictures that I can get scanned if anyone would like to see them! One of my favorite parts of London is the transportation. We rode on a double decker bus, on the tube, we walked, we saw neat cabs, and cool cars. On the tube you would always hear : "Mind the gap" because you had to step over a space and if you weren't paying attention you would fall in. Hehehe- some got really close! The food was an all time LOW. My group ate in McDonald's, Burger King, Chi Chi's - all the places that were here in the states. We went to pubs and other places but I didn't eat- it was nasty. So when we got in for the night we drank a lot of soda and ate a lot of junk. Now I need to mention Harrod's for Mackenzie. We stayed in there a long time and didn't even get to see the whole store! I stayed in the toy section most of the time. All the sites were great and so were the people. I even came back with a pair of Spice Girl shoes - LOL Mackenzie - they are bright blue!
