     I was born in Brazil. I live in Guara. I live with my mother, sisters, cousins and my aunt.
     I study at Paulista University. I like to study because I always learn new things. I´m going to graduate in 2018 and start a new course.
     I have short and dark brown hair, brown eyes, small nose, small mouth, small ears, round face, all parts of my body are small and sometimes I feel very terrible, because of that. I usually wear confortable clothes and don´t matter if it´s dark or light colors. My best qualities are: I am tidy, friendly, patient, volunteer, imaginative, organized, responsible, independent and generous. My worst qualities are: I am unsociable, anxious, sensitive, stupid and sometimes jealous.
     I like to sleep, read books, do sports, play the piano, write books, watch my favorite tv program,film and serie, clean the house, make arts, record videos and talk in English to my mother. I practice basketball, badminton, volleyball, swimming, ballet and street dance. I like to listen pop music, rock, Brazilian popular music and classic music. I speak English, Spanish, Japanese, Italian, a little of German, Portuguese and French.
     I usually see my mother on Mondays, Thursdays and Sundays. I usually see my father on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays. I visit my grandparents three times a month. I get along with my family because of the past, but we have a lot of things in common. We walk to the park, we practice sports, we cook and create new things.
     I´ll see my japanese cousins in 2022 and I will share my best moments and knowledge with them. I am planning to go on holiday with my sisters, but I think I won´t recognize my cousin since I lost say her.
