= __Hello and welcome strangers to my Modern World History Honors ﻿virtual notebook ! __ =

== My name is Stanley Chan and I am a student-athlete at MHS. Currently, I am in the 11th grade, graduating with MHS Class of '12. As part of the grant given to the school by the Department of Education, MHS is allowing my class and other classes to be the first-time guinea pigs to virtual notebooks innovation in our city. Amazing isn't it? I get to be the pet or puppet of some higher authority -_- ==



==Oh wells, at least that means I get to use a brand new laptop for a more modernized class :] Hmm... I have so much to say yet nothing to say. Well I think I'm a good student at MHS; I put my best foot forward in every I do, whether it is class or extracurricular activities. I have many interests as well; I'm a proud music geek as I am part of the MHS Concert Choir, Concert Band, Percussion Ensemble, and Marching Band. I'm also a proud member of the Golden Tornado Football and Lacrosse teams (ex-member of the indoor Track and Wrestling teams), Captain's Council, and will do anything for my community. Even with all my activities, I strive to be a student first and try my best to maintain my 4.0 GPA and make it into Yale or Harvard Law.==
