Orlando

As I walk up the mountain,

I feel the wind soaring through me

I feel my legs aren’t as strong back then

I feel the springs splash in my face

I feel the water on the grass as I sit down

I feel like I’m in heaven,

(and just yesterday, I had to be home by seven)

I feel more than me, like the mountains I see.

Hey my name is Orlando. I’m 15 years old, and I’m attending East this year.

I’m a junior, and I like to have fun. I enjoy my summer by going to family parties and dances. I’m Samoan, Tongan, Caucasian. I love hanging out with family and friends. I also love dipnetting with my dad. I have been in Alaska for at least ten years.
