I READ BECAUSE IT IS FUN
Name: Tora Portvik
Age: 17 år
District: Søndre Nordstrand
Nationality: Norwegian
I live in a semi-detached house with my mother Marianne and my brother Trym, and I also live in a villa with my father Sture and Vibeke, Anders, Trym and the cat Lano.
I am a student at Ulsrud high school, and I want to become a feature journalist.
I belong to the ones not liking ticket controls, the ones who like to write, the ones who like to hang with friends, the ones who enjoy summer, the ones who check out the news on the net and the ones who like to debate but I do not belong to the ones who decide over the remote control over the TV.
I live in Oslo because I was born here. I think Oslo is nice, and Holmlia where I live is very nice, you can find places to be where there are no cars. The train-tickets should have been cheaper though, and there shouldn’t be that many inspections on the train. I also think they use money on ugly buildings in Oslo.
I can agree on the saying “the strongest man in the world is the most alone”, but it is also good to have people around.
A turning point for me would be when my parents got divorced and I suddenly had two homes – I had to choose what clothes and what things I should place in what home.
For the performance I will take the express-bus from Holmlia that stops right outside the theatre.
