About Me

there are so many great things I could say about myself, I do not know where to begin.

I am modest, timid, meek, repressed, plain, simple, unassuming, unostentatious, unpretentious, bashful, coy, demure, diffident, retiring, self-effacing, and shy.

and I have a great vocabulary too... a
