Dance
I love to dance. Whenever I get the chance, I work on my moves. I dance in a Puerto Rican dance group. I’ve been doing this since I was about 5 years old. This especially helps me when I’m in a bad mood or mad because I forget about everything and just have fun.
Making Jewelry
I also enjoy making beaded jewelry. I like to try difficult patterns, even if they don’t end up as I planned they would. Sometimes, if I like what I make, I’ll give my creations away to friends. I like to see them wear my jewelry because I know I made it.
Drawing
Another thing I enjoy doing is drawing. The most common thing I do is find paintings I really like and try to draw them to the best of my ability. Sometimes I just draw bodies and design clothes on them. This is relaxing because I am able to step into another world, and it broadens my outlook on life.
