I am Andrea. Perhaps the word "average" can best describe me. I am of average height， average weight and of average complexion. I have a thin face， double-lid eyes and a pointed nose. My hair is black， short and straight. I have never worn my hair long.I look like both my mother and my father， but I have inherited their best parts. lam a teacher， and I like my job. I believe her or his students can sometimes teach a teacher. Actually I have learnt a lot from my own teaching experience and my students. One particularly good thing about being a teacher is that I am learning something new each day and thus making progress each day. This is wonderful. Of course the income is modest， but on the other hand， quite stable. I keep growing all the time. I find great rewards both monetarily and mentally.
I have many hobbies： reading books， raising pets， making dresses， etc. I like volleyball very much， but I can't play it very often， because it is a team sport. It is difficult to get enough people to play volleyball with me. It's a shame. I derive great pleasure out of my hobbies.
Generally speaking， I am open， honest and easy-going. I hate hypocrisy and injustice. Fairness is very important to me. I try to be fair in everything I do. I have great appreciation for physical and spiritual independence. I am a bit disorganized and impatient sometimes.
I don't have many friends， but I do have a few. I have both male and female friends. We do sports together， go shopping together； and we exchange our views and ideas and share happiness and sadness. Of course we help each other if necessary. I always consider myself a lucky person. I am lucky in my family， I am lucky in my career， I am lucky in my friendship， I am lucky in many things. In one word， I am lucky in life. I am really grateful for all these.
