Our Gaming Avatars
Leo
I play a lot of fantasy games. My avatar does not look like me at all! In real life, I am quite short, but my avatar is very tall and strong. He has green skin and long ears. He also has a black cat's tail! I love changing his hair colour every week. Right now, it is bright blue. He wears heavy metal boots and big gloves. I think it is fun to play as someone completely different from myself.
Sam
Many players choose crazy avatars, but I want mine to look exactly like me. My avatar is a normal teenage boy with short brown hair. He is quite short, just like I am! He does not wear heavy metal clothes. Instead, he wears everyday things like a comfortable sweater, jeans, and sports shoes. He even wears the same round glasses that I have. In the game, I fight big machines, but my character is just a normal human.
Mia
When I first started playing my favourite game, my avatar was a tall girl with long hair. But I changed it last year. Now, my character looks like a cool robot. She has silver metal arms and legs, and she does not wear normal clothes. Her eyes are amazing because they glow in the dark, and they change colour when she runs. She also has a cute pet dog that follows her everywhere. I really love her new look!

Our Social Media Bios
Alex
I do not write much in my social media bio. I think it is better to keep things short and simple. I only use a few emojis. There is a football, a mountain, and a dog. These pictures show people that I love sports, nature, and animals without using any words. Some of my friends write long stories about themselves, but that is not my style. I want people to get to know the real me when we talk, not just from my page.
Bella
I love changing the words in my bio almost every week! It usually depends on how I feel. Right now, I have a joke about sleeping all day and eating too much pizza. I want to make people smile when they visit my page. I also put a little book picture because reading is my favourite hobby. In the future, I might write something serious, but for now, I just want to show that I am a happy person.
Charlie
My bio is quite long because I want to show all the things I do. I am the captain of the school chess club and I play the guitar in the school band, so I list those there. I think it is important to share your successes with others. I also want my page to look good for when I look for a job in a few years. It shows that I work hard and I am busy. I am very proud of my page.
