Chapter 3

Sandra "Sandy" Cheeks (born November 17, 1987) is a female squirrel and is notable for her Texan characteristics, knowledge of karate and science. Sandy come from the state of Texas and exhibits many characteristics of a stereotypical "cowgirl" character. She speaks with a heavy southern accent, and uses typical southern slang words and phrases I can't reveal here. She is very fond of her homeland and its culture in which she grows homesick for it and considers leaving Bikini Bottom to return to Texas.

As an inventor, Sandy is capable of creating extremely advanced devices with ease. Her inventions include a manned space ship, a teleporter, a submarine, and even a cloning device.

Sandy lives in Houston. She moved to Bikini Bottom from Houston, Texas.

Memorable quotes:

"Howdy!"

"I like you, Van Man."

She is in Van Man's house. "Shoot! Looks like a twister hit this place!"
