I AM example…I am shy and do not like to talk in front of people.
I am a procrastinator and always have been…to the dismay of my teachers.
I am interested in scary movies; the scarier the better.I am NOT a fan of country music; their voices make
me want to scream!I am a sister, a daughter, a granddaughter, and a
great-granddaughter.I am a good listener; my friends rely on me for help.I am extremely clumsy, and I will trip over anything.
I am deathly afraid of spiders, birds, and heights.I am fond of giraffes, lizards and my dog, Fluffy.
I am Enzo Bob Martellucci
