Your page must include:

o The person’s name and a nickname that shows what they are known for.
o The person’s picture.
o The person’s age and location.
o An “about me” section that summarizes the person’s life in at least 2 paragraphs.
o 1 “blog” where the person writes his/her opinion about an event that happened during his/her lifetime in at least 2 paragraphs.
