Be You

During my high school years, I was the shortest in the class. My hairstyle was basically having no style at all, as I always had messy hair and never managed to tame it. In ninth grade, I began wearing glasses because of a myopia disease. I was also very thin, weighing only 45 kg, which made me look even smaller.

I wore my uniform according to the rules set by the nuns, since rebellion wasn't my thing, but I used to make jokes and teasing all my classmates whenever I could. I also loved making my best friends laugh. We were all obsessed with cartoon-themed t-shirts, and we used to wear the cross of St. Francisco de Asís, it was like the symbol of our friendship.

Be Green

If we reduce our use of plastic, we can help lower pollution levels significantly. Using public transport or cycling would reduce carbon emissions and improve air quality.

If we avoid leaving taps running while brushing our teeth or washing dishes, we can significantly reduce water waste.

If everyone started recycling, it would make a huge difference in conserving natural resources. By turning off appliances when not in use, we can save energy and decrease our carbon footprint.

Planting trees and preserving forests is essential to absorbing CO2 and combating climate change.
