My name is Emeri, and
I'm from South Australia. I live in the driest state
on the driest continent in the world. The summers are hot and dry, and
the winters are cold and wet. But I love the
place where I live. In our city we enjoy
lots of festivals and we have beautiful old
churches that we can visit. Our neighborhood is between
the hills and the beaches, so there's lots for me, my
three brothers, and our parents to do. My favorite thing
to do is to read. I think that's why my
mum calls me a bookworm. But in school I also like
music, art, and drama. I also like to create dances
and plays with my friends. One of my favorite desserts
is pavlova and meringue cake filled with cream and fruit. I love activity nights
in Primary and sharing time on Sundays. I always look forward
to general conference because I can hear our prophet,
President Thomas S. Monson, talk about the gospel. I especially like
to hear the stories he tells about the people
he served when he was young. He's my favorite
modern-day prophet. His stories of service
inspired our family to get a small puppy that will
grow up to be a guide dog. We get to raise her
until she's ready to be trained so that someday she
will help someone who is blind, deaf, or disabled
have a better life. My name is Emeri, and
I am one in a million. [MUSIC PLAYING]
