Cancer-June 22-July 22
Cancer’s good traits include emotional, loving,
intuitive, shrewd, imaginative, cautious, protective and
sympathetic.
I feel that the word loving describes me best
because I have feelings for other people. I care for my two
younger brothers while my mom does her work. I care for my
younger cousins when my grandma is cooking. I have care for my
family members by playing with them and having fun with them. I
teach my brothers and cousins their homework.
On the dark side, I am changeable and moody
because I change everyday. Sometimes I’m sad and sometimes I’m
happy. I’m worried one day and I’m afraid the next.

Two of the traits that describe
me are intelligent and analytical. I am intelligent because I
get good grades on my tests. I sometimes correct the teacher.
I’m smart. I’m analytical because everything in my life has to
be in steps. My chores have to be in steps, my homework is in
steps. Everything is in steps.
On the dark side I am a
perfectionist and conservative. I am a perfectionist because
most of my stuff has to be perfect. I am conservative because I
don’t try new things. |

Gemini-May 22- June 22
Gemini’s
good traits includes adaptable, versatile, communicative, witty,
intellectual, eloquent, youthful, and lively. Gemini’s dark side
traits includes nervous, tense, superficial, inconsistent,
cunning, and inquisitive.
I feel
that the trait that describe me the best from the good traits is
communicative. I talk to my friends on the phone a lot. I talk
to them at least two hours a day. Once I woke up with a sore
throat because I was talking too much the other day. I could
hardly talk that morning.
I also
feel that the trait that describes me the best from the dark
traits is inquisitive. I always want to know what people are
talking about. So I like to eavesdrop on people or spy on them.
I’m very interested in what people are talking about. Once my
mom was talking on the phone. I was so curious about what she
was talking about I was listening on the other end of the line.
This is how some of my traits describe me. |

Capricorn-December 22nd-January 20th
One
of my character traits on the good side is ambitious. Ambitious
means hard-working. I am a hard worker because everyday I think
of school. I enjoy school because of all the activities.
School is very important.
One of my character traits on the dark side is miserly. Miserly
means cheap and stingy. I never seem to want to spend money in
my bad or good mood. I think money is really important. |

Cancer- June 22nd-July 22nd
Cancer’s good
traits include emotional, loving, intuitive, shrewd,
imaginative, cautious, protective and sympathetic.
I feel that
imaginative describes me best because I like to imagine things.
I like to pretend I’m somewhere else although I’m really in my
neighborhood. Sometimes when I have to write a story, I like to
make up a mysterious setting where I could do whatever I want.
Being imaginative helps me a lot because when I play games that
you have to make up yourself, ideas just pop in my head! That
way more fun would be put in the game. This is only my bright
side. My dark side is well, you know, not so great!
On my dark
side, I feel that unable to let go describes me best. Once my
mom decided to donate some clothes to charity including my old
ones that I like the most. It’s not like I don’t like charity,
but I am just attached to my clothes. I hate to give my
belongings away, so I snuck and took my clothes back. I hid it
in my closet and my mom still hasn’t found it! I know this is
not good, but I couldn’t help it. It is one of my dark traits! |

CANCER- June 22nd -July 22nd
One of
Cancer’s traits is to be protective. I feel I’m protective
because I don't like people bothering or annoying my family. I
don't like people hitting my family or friends. I'm very
protective because I defend my family and friends. This is why
I feel I’m protective.
On the
dark side I feel I’m changeable and moody because one day I’m in
a good mood, then the next day I’m in a bad mood. For example -
If I’m having fun and all happy suddenly I start turning mad.
This is why I feel I’m changeable and moody. |

One of
Capricorn’s traits is careful. I’m careful. I feel this trait
describes me because I handle things carefully. I take things
seriously most of the time. I don’t get wrong answers. I never
break things.
On the

going to happen to me. For example, after I take a test I
always think that I’ll fail or get a bad mark. Sometimes I do,
but most of the time I don’t. I always worry about what’s going
to happen to me. |
