There are millions upon millions of Shannon's out there. There are less Shannon G.s, but there's only one Tea. I see no problem with telling you what city/state I live in, how old I am, and what my first name is. There's another Shannon in my community. I hate her.
Anyway, as for People to People, I actually know a kid who does it as often as his family can afford it. They do fundraisers for it and stuff. He's a good kid and a genius, if you ask me.
If I were a boy, I would be Michael. My mom wanted to call me Claire.
