I’ve been playing soccer for many years. I started playing soccer when I was around 3 or 4 when my parents signed me up. My dad co-coached my team with a good family friend until I was around 8 or 9. At this point, our club made higher performance teams and the person my dad co-coached with’s son made one of the high-performance teams and I didn’t so my dad coached by himself. A year or 2 later I made a high-performance team and my dad continued coaching with this team. Slowly as I grew older the soccer club started giving teams paid coaches who work for the club. My team got one and he still coaches us to this day.
Another thing I enjoy doing is playing video games. The first time I played video games is when my parents bought me and my sibling a Wii. We loved the Wii and could spend hours playing Mario kart or super Mario bros. For one of my birthdays, I got a Nintendo ds and I loved it. My favourite game by far was pokemon, which is a franchise I still play to this day. I would spend all my free time playing pokemon and just having a fun time. while still playing and loving my ds, my sister and I convinced my parents to buy us a Minecraft account. we alternated playing Minecraft and had fun building random things. It is so fun that I still play Minecraft to this day.
My quote, which is a quote from Albert Einstein, is very accurate to how your view should be on life. It says that you don’t have to be special to do something amazing, you just have to have a passion. This is very inspirational because it makes room for anyone to be well known for years and years just like Einstein was. I hope that i will be able to live my life by this quote because I think it will make me a better, more open-minded person
My favourite picture is a picture of an Australian labradoodle puppy. The reason this is my favourite picture is that my dog is an Australian labradoodle and this picture reminded me of her. I got my dog almost 3 years ago around Christmas. We named her luna after Luna Lovegood from harry potter, which is a favourite series of my family. Luna isn’t very social with dogs and prefers people. this leads to some embarrassing interactions when we are walking her.
The video I’ve chosen for my favourite video is of commentary over gameplay of Minecraft. The video talks about elementary school stories of the YouTuber. He talks about getting and trouble and I find it funny and relatable to an extent. The first time I saw this video was a few years ago and have come back to rewatch it multiple times. There were a few videos from this person that I had to chose from but in the end, I decided this was the best by far.
My favourite website is YouTube. The reason it is my favourite is because of the vast use of it. You can learn something for math, or watch something to entertain yourself. There is a chance for a career, although very unlikely and all it takes is a phone with a connection. YouTube has changed the world in many ways as it is quick communication and a great way to consume media.
