First "blind as a bat" is a simile. My example is "both Messi the soccer player and I run as fast as a cheetah." Second, "I'm so hungry I could eat a horse" is hyperbole. My example is " l am the best soccer player in the world." Third, ""we're two peas in a pod" is a metaphor or idiom. My example is "we are two hot dogs in a pan." Finally, " gulp" and "crash"are onomatopoeia. My example is "ding." Also, personification that I thoughtof  is "the shoe ate the sock."
