Tatiana Sergie (Quukataq)

When summer arrived it was boring,Tatiana said. It was boring because she just walked around town! There were hardly any dances to go to, and she mostly hung around with MJ (Little Antique).

Later though the summer started to get fun when she went swimming at the sand bar with MJ, Victor, Liz, Cheryl, Donna, Crystal, Leo, and many more. (I'm glad she never got a tan because she looks tanned already!)

She went to Ohog with a lot of other kids on July 24 for a Russian Orthodox Camp, and came back on July 29. She didn't enjoy standing around outside there because of the bugs. Talk about bugs! But she loved it when it came time to swim. "Even though the water was cold," she said, "we got used to it, it was a blast."

So Quukataq pretty much enjoyed her summer!
