Biography
Hi! I'm Diamantina Peixoto, but please call me Tina. I'll tell you about my mother. One day, she was scaling a fish with a piece of wood, when a monkey showed up. The monkey offered to give her a razor to help her cut the fish easier. She got the razor, but then lost it, and a few days later the monkey demanded it. He then stole some fish from her.

My mother ended up opening a fish market in town, and that's where she met my dad. Thus they had me. I am the younger of two girls. Both of us help our mom with the fish. My father catches fish for a living, and he gives them to my mom so she can prepare them to be sold. They're a pretty good team.

I'm spending my first year at Ever After High. I like it here very much - it's a great school. I know a few other students from my parent's story. That makes me feel more at home.

I'm pretty good with fish, and I've learned how to catch them from my dad and how to scale and de-bone them from my mother. I also love cooking them, and I enjoy Cooking Class-ic where I can make all sorts of recipes with them.

I'm definitely going to stay out of the destiny conflict since it causes too much drama around here.
