          Hey everyone, my name is Jake Siegel.  As of right now I am still deciding on my major, but hopefully by the end of the semester I will know what major I would like to pursue.  Anyways, I am 18 years old and have one younger sibling named Kurt.  I’m an MK so for most of my life I have grown up in Saint-Petersburg, Russia.  My Dad is a teacher at the international school I attend and my mom works for Wycliffe Bible Translators.

         Since I have grown up in Russia I consider it my home, and USA a foreign country with a strange culture.  But I have been In America for three months now and I’m already adapting to the culture and people here.  One thing I’ve always had to adapt to is coming back to the small towns and rolling fields of farmland.  In Russia I lived in a city of five million people was no corn fields and grass was something special.  But even with a huge city, my International school was very small (around 90 kids k-12) so coming to Huntington where there are at least a thousand students has been a big shock for me. 

         Even though I might have come from a different place my interest pretty much what you would expect. I love watching movies, Lord of the Rings and Star Wars being two of my favorites.  I love watching TV Shows like Lost, NCIS, and Adventure Time.  I love playing Video Games and I play sports like basketball and soccer for fun.

Yep that’s me, can’t wait to get to know you all !
