Alice Foucher Prou (8 years old) <Read Alice's Digital Diaries>
Alice est une fille très belle et charmante qui habite au village qu'il s'appelle Touvois, à-côté de la ville Nantes, ouest de Paris. Des qu'elle a vu le camera, elle commença à filmer ses frères et le chat de la famille. Elle habite avec ses parents et ses deux frères Similien et Celestin. Elle présente la vie de la campagne en France (j'ai beaucoup aimé le moment où j'ai vu du vert partout) mais parfois elle ne comprends pas pourquoi les gens trouvent sa vie intéressante… Peut être vous pouvez lui expliquer comment sa vie est différente des nôtres !
Alice is a beautiful charming young girl who lives in the village of Touvois, close to the city of Nantes, west of Paris. The moment she had the camera in her hands, Alice began filming her younger brothers and the family cat. She lives with her parents and two brothers Similien and Celestin. Alice shows us rural life in France (which I fell in love with the minute I laid eyes on all that green!) but sometimes she wonders why people would find her life interesting… perhaps you could explain to her how her life is different from ours!
Lekha Samant (?? years old) <Read Lekha's Digital Diaries>
I’m Lekha Samant from India. I reside in Mumbai.
Nature is what fascinates me the most. There’s always something more to what I think and see. I love animals and I’m quite passionate about the environment. Rains give me great joy and happiness! Dancing is something I can’t live without. I learn Kathak, one of the Indian classical dances. I like music, I get totally lost when I’m listening to it. Coldplay is my favourite band. I like to read and watch movies as well. Ruskin Bond, Sudha Murty, Dan Brown, Jeffery Archer are my favourite authors. Cars, Cricket, Geography, Travelling etc are some of my interests.
Overall, I’m a cheerful and friendly person.
Dean Donald. Mumbai/Bombay, India. (16 years old) <Read Dean's Digital Diaries>
I met Dean in January 2006 when returning to my home city of Bombay for the holidays. Recommended by his teacher and apparently a very distant relation of mine, he was the first participant who agreed to run with my idealistic idea. Armed with my personal dinky camcorder, Dean quickly took on the digital world. When I visited him again in January 2008, he had stretched by a good 6 inches, his voice has deepened by a couple of decibels and was quite the young man. This is what he had to say when I asked him to introduce himself:
Hey my name is Dean. I’m sixteen years old I’m about 5’’11, black hair and brown eyes… but my appearance is not want you want to be worried about – you can get a look of me from the videos posted on the site.. It’s my personality that’s the thing you can’t see ...I am a good-natured boy hahaha LOL ….I kinda suck at studies - getting bad marks is become regular in my life. I’m okay at sports… I’m quite good at football but there’s always that second opinion… ;) I think of myself as are real funny guy though I’m known to say some extremely sad jokes …LOL…I think that there are 2 ways a person can act - all serious and all with life or they can be the funny type and be constantly entertaining people. I guess I'm that second type… Heheheh. I have 2 sisters who can be extremely annoying and sweet simultaneously…Well a guy can’t get EVERYTHING he wants, rite?
Okey that’s about it… I find it very irritating to describe myself having done it in school a MILLION times...heheh … which, by the way I’m in (junior) college now ….its funny really when you’re in school your goal is to finish and go to college and then when you’re in college your goal is to graduate and get a job and then after that to bug your company for PENSION…heheheh… Okey that’s about it - if I said anymore I would be declared VAIN… ;)
