Hello World!

Hello people, my name's Erik and I am a comic strip character. This is my attempt at making an online journal.

My name is Erik Campos and I was born in Midtoon 16 years ago. My Father is John Campos and my mother is Carmen Santiago. They are both Puertorrican, but they moved to Midtoon before I was born. My mother and my father got divorced when my brother was a baby, and my mother left us and went back to Puerto Rico. Five years ago, when Javier was two, dad married Mabel Snyders, and a year later they bought the house we live in now. Perhaps I will write more about them later.

Let me tell you a little about what's going on in my life right now. If you prefer to see it for yourself, the current chapter begins at http://www.midtoon.com/011001.htm. To see my strip form the beginning go to http://www.midtoon.com/010101.htm, but I must warn you that other people also feature prominently in the story, so it is not just me.

There is this big dance coming soon and I wanted to ask this girl, her name is Anita Gaitan and she is a cheerleader. Well, I heard that she was dumping her boyfriend and I really wanted to ask her to the big dance (the Summer Dance) but I didn't dare, so I asked my friend Mario to ask her for me. The problem is that Mario went and invited her himself!

I was so mad at him that I didn't know what I was going to do, but this morning at school, he told me that he isn't really into her and that if I take his sister to the dance, he will set me up with Anita.

I don't really know Mario's sister. I know she is a senior but she always leaves school early for work somewhere in Centerville and never hangs out around school.

I really don't know if I should trust Mario, especially after what he did to me. I guess I will ask Mabel (my stepmom) and see what she thinks.

Hey, this is it! I have a blog!
