Hi Tomas!

Nice to meet you. Let me introduce myself: My name is Paola, but I like to be called
Pao for short. I love eating greasy foods such as McDonald. I have family that lives in
the US, Chile and Barcelona! My birthday was on May 9 th. My usual schedule during
this pandemic is waking up around noon, eating breakfast and working out before
sitting down to do my homework and study. My favorite sport would have to be boxing
because I enjoy watching people bleed. I am a happy person and I really like to laugh
at myself.

Now let me ask you some questions! What do you do for a living? Do you have a job?
How about your favorite foods to snack on? Do you have family elsewhere in the
world? Do you have a favorite sport? Can I have your number and address? How
about this weekend, any plans?
