Carlos Ramirez

Welcome traveler, My name is Carlos Ramirez. My friends say i'm a bit of an oddball but i would have to disagree. I'm not much of a sporty person becuase me, Carlos, is bad at sports and, as my friends would call me, super scrawny. Therefore i'm stuck everyday at home doing homework and looking at some spicy memes and playing video games. And that is my super interesting life. Even though i'm not much of an interesting person, my mom says it's on what's the inside that counts.
