Um, my name is Hil Kack. I'm 9 years old, and I'm 9 years old. The best thing about being a boy is like a boy, being very sporty. The best thing about being a girl is because girls can do a little bit more things than boys.

[Music]

The best thing about being a girl is now I don't have to pretend to be a boy. Before I transitioned, I was just pretending to be a boy, but now I'm a girl, and I'm a lot happier. The worst thing about being a girl is that you just can't do things that boys can do. The worst thing about being a boy is your under AR stin, like it kind of bothers me how there was not one girl president.

[Music]

One thing I wish I could do but I can't because I'm a girl is I can't be treated like I wanted to. If I was a girl, my life would be very strange and odd. Well, I wouldn't be one of those fancy girls; I would just be like a tomboy. The hair always comes in your face; it would be very, very irritating with the long hair, and the boys tease you but not raining fast back. If I was a girl, I would have to play with Barbies; I won't be able to play boy games.

Something that makes me sad is thinking of my dad. I used to go to my dad's house, and then one day he left me on the porch. I got bullied before at school, and then after that, I never saw him again. He just pushed me against the wall, then left without saying sorry.

Also, if I could change sort of the world, I would stop people from [Music]. Bowling. I would make the roads able to fit four cars so there would be less traffic. I would not change anything because I like what I have and what I don't have. A chocolate house! I would live in that house, and I would eat it every day. So, you have to appreciate what you have more than what you don't have.

When I grow up, I want to be a professional golfer, the first Indian president. I want to be a Navy s [Music]. I want to be a dentist, Banker, or a computer-like genius guy.

[Music]

I'm going to help kids have good teeth, not have cavities. Yay! We're done! Become an adult. What can go up but never come down? The answer is age, because you can grow, but you cannot get smaller.

So, do you say better sounds like bitter? I know it's my... and I hate those! Um, dude, what do you think about girls? What shoes do chickens wear? The answer is [Music].

Was it boring? A little bit. How many photos did we take? 300? No, I think it's like sort of like 420 in that [Music] range.
