Soy un blob que le gusta sentarse cerca de volcanes que están por hacer erupción. En el día soy de color rosado. En la noche soy de color verde neon. Soy resistente al fuego y muy brillante. Me gusta nadar pero no tengo brazos, ni piernas, por lo que floto. A veces, mientras me muevo, parte de mi se desprende en forma de gelatina pegajosa. Pero no se preocupen, todo me vuelve a crecer en un minuto. Hi, my name is Blobby Einstein Jr. I am a blob. I am a blob that likes to sit near volcanoes that are about to erupt. When it's day I am pink. When it's night I am neon green. I am fireproof and very shiny. I like to swim but I have no arms, or legs, so, I float. Sometimes while I move, slime falls off of me. But don't worry, it all grows back in a minute.
