My First Post!!!!!

Hi everyone!
          My name is Ellen and I'm in high school creating my first blog! I live with my mom, dad, little sister and our two warring cats. We moved a lot and I have lived in Minnesota, Iowa and Boston, and two cities in Germany. I suppose this is both good and bad. One good thing is I am mostly fluent in German and can read German books. Twice as many books to read! My family likes to go on car trips, eat pie, and do nerdy stuff like read math books together.
          My sister and I like playing music and playing hockey together. I play the bass and she plays the violin. I also like to read. I have many favorites, but two that I can think of are The Golden Compass by Philip Pullman and A Tree Grows in Brooklyn by Betty Smith. My favorite German book is Liverpool Street by Anne Voorhoeve. This year I am taking Geography, English, German 4, Calculus 1, Chemistry and Orchestra. I really like all of them. I like watching movies too, especially the ones by the Coen Brothers.
          Alright, more later.
