Explain a hobby or expertise that you want future employers and colleges to know about you. I've always been interested in art. I've been drawing since I learned how to pick up a pencil. I always drew for my mom and dad, and they still have those drawings. I loved to draw and color until I got to high school and took visual arts. There, I learned how to draw even better and to paint. I also learned how to include details and very nice textures. Now, I'm taking my first year of photography class. Taking photos is probably one of my favorite things to do. We made our own pinhole cameras and we take pictures with them. It's really fun! Then, maybe I'm going to cooking college after I graduate. I really want to work at a five star restaurant and be a chef, or a baker. Making cakes are another of my fave things! I want to decorate cakes or something. This is what I want my future employers, bosses and colleges to know about me. And maybe I could get a job that I love!
What is your favorite sport? What skills are needed to become an elite athlete in that sport? As I've already made it obvious, My favorite sport is softball. I've been playing it for four years. It's a sport played as baseball but for girls and it has many similarities however a few differences. Softballs are bigger than baseballs, and despite the name, they're not soft at all. Pitches are thrown underhand rather than overhand. Pitchers can either pitch fast or slow. The pitcher's mound is a different size than the baseball pitcher's mound. Softball is very fun to play, but people think it's boring to watch. I don't understand why? What do you think?
My dad always tells me I should eat healthy because I'm a player, but I never listened because I don't run much. Softball requires mental sharpness, alertness and quick judgment to perform. I eat sandwiches and granola bars before my games. Did you know that coffee will increase your alertness? That's really cool, because I always thought it slows you down. It's not only healthy foods that help. You also have to have great eye coordination, so you can tell what ball to hit when it's pitched, hit, or thrown to you. You have to have a lot of skill and strength. That way when you hit and throw really hard fast balls. Last, you have to have good sportsmanship because you're not going to win every game!
