Hi my name is Laird. I am a sixth grader at Santa Barbara Middle School. I am a Reporter.

I love to surf, play lacrosse and watch movies with my friends. I also like to listen to music, go to the beach, play volleyball and socialize.

I want to be in Teen Press because it sounds really fun and I get to meet some famous people.

I want to meet Jack Johnson because he makes the best music ever, Linkin Park because they are my favorite band, Eminem because he is my favorite rapper, Kelly Slater because he is the best surfer ever and my idol and Will Ferrell because he's my favorite actor.
