Her eyes are warm and inviting, which makes you feel at ease when talking to her. She prefers wearing comfortable clothes like jeans and t-shirts, often in bright colors that reflect her cheerful personality. What makes Maria special is her caring nature. She is always the first person to offer help when someone is in trouble. Last month, when our classmate John was sick, Maria was the one who visited him at home and brought him the homework so he wouldn't fall behind in class. Her thoughtfulness shows her big heart. She is also very hardworking and determined. Maria is good at sports and academics. She is an excellent soccer player and one of the top students
