Pahz Cherelin is currently a ninth grader in School of the Arts. He is taking a creative writing class in which he hopes to improve his grammar. He turned 14 in May. He lives in Rochester, New York with his parents and his 3 pets, his dog Rascal, his other dog Gremlin, and his sister, Tierra. He enjoys writing, sports, video games, and food. He likes writing comically and enjoys writing deep and dark short stories and poems. His favorite book is The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy; his favorite movie is Deadpool. He has long term depression (not really) because in 1st grade (this is a true story by the way) he met this girl, he did not know her at the time but apparently she knew him. She said hello and was very excited when she found out that they were in the same class. She was so excited in fact that she jumped out of her seat on the bus and made out with Pahz. Pahz did not know this girl but he let her do her thing. Within the week they were boyfriend and girlfriend. They were together all through first and second grade. He thought that nothing could tear them apart… Until she moved to a new school. He was scared and afraid without her. Seemingly a miracle occurred. He transferred schools so that he was in the same school as her. When he walked into class on his first day he was so excited to see her… with another man. That’s right, after only one week of being apart she had already gotten together with another man. And that kids is why Pahz Cherelin has long term depression…
