Julius enjoys counting and crunching numbers, and he looks forward to math classes. He has excelled in fractions and decimals, and he thinks he would like to become an accountant in the future. He also likes art and enjoys drawing and painting. He understands that Jesus Christ is the only way to heaven and that He is completely trustworthy.
