Cherisa Skinny, reporter
My name is Cherisa Skinny. I am a freshman. I joined Newswriting to become a better writer and to know more about this class. I also joined Newswriting because I enjoy writing. I am the girl in high school who always loves to write essays. I am Chuukese. I was born in Chuuk. I came to Hawaii in 2005 with my aunty when I was three months old. I have been on this island for 14 ½ years. I want to learn more skills about writing the school newspaper. Since I'm a shy student, Newswriting will help me get to know people and talk to more students and learning more about them.
