My names is D.J. Savarese. I’m glad I’m me. I am 11 years old. I’m proud to be in school. I want to be successful. I can do a lot of things. I know I can be focused; sometimes I forget. I hope you understand the way I am. I wish I could fly. I like to go skating. I hear all that you tell me. I want to change scary things. I play with my friends. I smile when I see Miss Innis in the morning. I love my mom and dad. I see what I want to. I believe in the people who want to love me. I am thankful for my family. I will try to smile at everyone. I enjoy being at school. I dream about life. I wonder what I will become of myself. I need to be focused. I wear buttoned-up shirts. I’m glad I’m DJ
