I am a very proud Valley Girl from Woodland Hills, Ca. And something special about where I am from is my high school, Taft High School. Some of my greatest (and worst) memories took place there. I attended all four years of high school there, and graduated 2003. I was very active in my school, played on the softball team, student government, and various other activities. Anyway, Taft has produced a number of notable celebrities, hopefully I will be on this list soon (lol), including very well known singers and athletes.
