Hobbies

Growing up, I had many things that I was introduced to that sparked my interest.  The first sport that I ever loved was basketball.  Basketball was a sport that always seemed to calm me and bring me peace, whether it was watching the game or playing it.  Many other sports played their parts in my life as I was growing up as well such as football, soccer, and kickball with my friends.

basketballWhen I was not outdoors playing any type of sport, I loved playing video games.  But my love for sports carried over into video games as well.  I favored sports video games over any other games.  The games I seemed to like the most were NBA basketball games.  These games really stimulated my interest and one thing that helped me do well in school, was when my parents would either take the games away until I got better grades, or offer to reward me for better grades.

Another thing I enjoy doing is dancing, but who doesn’t enjoy dancing?  Growing up I was normally pretty shy and could not dance until I started admiring a guy of the name of Michael Jackson.  His moves inspired me to learn how to do just some of the steps that Michael did.  These few moves then turned into a multitude of different dances that I would then go on to learn and pick up.
