Introduction/Test Post

I'm Alex Reininger. I have done dance team all four years of high school and track for three years. My hobbies are dancing, running, hiking, ice skating and diving. This summer I traveled to Fiji for a month where I received three college credits for shark studies. This was one of the highlights of my life. During the trip we were able to dive with bull sharks, white tip reef sharks, black tip reef sharks, grey reef sharks and tawny nurse sharks. This trip opened my eyes up to a hobby that I would have never seen myself doing before. I love diving, especially with sharks. An interesting fact about me is that I was almost a victim of a shark attack while diving off the coast of San Diego with a 6-foot short finned Mako. Luckily, I avoided becoming shark bait. Ask me about my trip! I love telling stories. :)
