  1. My favorite food are tacos, my favoritre ones are "Al pastor".
    5 years ago I went to Puerto Escondido, the second day I almost drowned at the beach.
    There are so many things I want to change, one of them would be to get best grades in 4th grade.
    I would be the best president of Mexico because I would help to chidren and to everybody.

  3. I know time traveling is impossible, but if I could go back in time there are so many things I would change. Maybe my childhood wasn't the best, so I would do a lot of stuff I didn't do because I was shallow and afraid of consequences.
