I would be the
fourth Powerpuff Girl. I
loved watching The Powerpuff
Girls because they were inspiring
superheroes who saved the
world and always got their job
done. But they were also known as
“sugar, spice, and everything nice.”
I appreciate how they were fierce to
accomplish their mission, but they
were always kind and compassionate
to all people. They taught me that
it is possible to be a relentless,
tough competitor while also being
respectful and selfless at
the same time.

I think I’d
rather be like Aang
from The Last Airbender
because he can not only
manipulate water, but also
manipulate wind, fire,
and earth!

I’ll go with Super
Mario. I started playing
when I was as little as I
can remember. We had the
Sega machine, which is very
old, and we would always play
Mario Kart.
