Hi! I'm Megan Giles, an eighth grade student, at the Altoona Area Jr. High School. I am very fond of musical movies or TV shows, like Mamma Mia, Glee, High School Musical, Grease and Bohemian Rhapsody. I love playing basketball and want to receive a scholarship to continue playing after high school. Specifically, I want to go college in North Carolina, and I aim for majoring in Dietetics. When I graduate, I want to live at the beach with my family, who is also moving there. I want to have a big family because I don't have one now. My favorite things to do are spend time with my family (especially my sisters) and play pick up basketball at the park with my friends.
