As a child, I was imaginative and curious. I always had a vibrant imagination and loved to pretend to be different characters in my own made-up stories. I would spend hours playing make-believe with my siblings or my friends, creating elaborate scenarios and adventures. I was also quite shy and introverted, preferring the company of books and my own thoughts. I would often get lost in the pages of a good book, transported to different worlds and lives.
One of my favorite activities as a child was exploring nature. I would spend countless hours outside, hiking through the nearby woods or playing in the backyard. I would collect bugs and flowers, observing their intricate details and trying to learn as much as I could about the natural world. I also enjoyed going on bike rides or playing sports with my family and friends. I loved the feeling of being active and the sense of freedom that came with it.
