    Only one person can write this and that person is you!

    First, take a piece of paper and fold it into fourths. On one fourth, write #3 (ask Mom). On another fourth, write some adjectives and adverbs attached to nouns that describe you. One another fourth, write #5 ("as hairy as a tarantula" or "as tall as Wilt Chamberlain"). On another fourth, write down what color you are (P.S. I'm cobalt blue). Flip the paper over. One one fourth, write down what your dream career is.

    Set it up, 20 lines.

    1)
    2)
    3)... so on till,
    20)

    Then write a few things you know about your birth, if you don't know ask your mother.

    Then Describe yourself appearance, then your Character (are you loyal, fun, caring, spiteful, sinical, etc).

    Talk about what your life using like or as, with detail.
    Ex for my life: "Like the rickety roller coaster races up and down, and even up"side"-down, So do my emotions of depression, mania, and apathey."-Me
    Do not use this! It's just an example.

    Then pick a colour that best describes or suits you as a person.

    "I am not a colour, but I am the shads of white, black, and greay.
    When i'm happy I can see all the colours of life,
    when I'm sad and alone the sun the moon and the stars hath a bandon me to my deepest darkness.
    When nothing really matters I feel the dence graying fog enclose upon me."-Me

    Then you make a title. Easy pease, and I thought I sucked at english. Haha. So it goes brother.
