All about me

Hello! I am going to speak about myself.
I think that I'm a normal girl. I am shy, sensitive and straigthforward. My friends say me that sometimes I get angry very quickly.
My parents think that I am a little bit rebellious and a little bit disobedient. I think that it's true but only sometimes.
About myself I think that sometimes I am a little bit quarrelsome but I'm peaceful and friendly too.
I hate being bothered when I'm sleeping because makes me very nervous.
Bye!!
