BONUS: use a word below (as a figure of speech) to describe you AND explain why. Heliotropic, hydrotropic, phototrophic, gertopic, thermotropic, nosturnum, and tergiversate
I’m heliotropic because I like happy things—like the sun and cake!
I’m hydrotropic because I cry when people cry. I’m basically a walking puddle.
