Hobbies 

Basket Ball
Whenever I get the chance, I play basketball with my friends.  Basketball seems to be the only sport that I am experienced in. We make a game of it and play until we get tired.  We don’t play basketball often because the boys usually take the basketball court from us.

Video Games
When I have completed all of my chores, schoolwork, and none of my friends are available, I play my Play Station.  It is the only thing left to do.  I don’t play the game very much because it often times gets incredibly boring.  I usually just plug the game up, place in a disk, and play until I get tired.

Hanging with my friends
I am so happy when the weekend comes around.  I finally get to hang with my friends and have fun.  On the weekend, my friends and I get together, and we entertain ourselves by going to the movies or a party.  Believe me, we do not do this every weekend, or we would be truly tired of that routine.  Still I like being with my friends every chance I get.

Books

Imani All Mine
By Connie Porter

 FOUR Thumbs Up.  I found this book to be very touching.  It’s about a teenage girl around the age of fifteen.  Her name is Tasha.  Tasha grows up in a not- so- nice environment so it’s harder for her to make it in life.  She struggles with school and personal issues with her family.  Tasha also struggles with raising her young baby girl, Imani.

Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry
By Mildred Taylor

 INCREDIBLE.  This book focuses on racial ideas and how much racism affected Blacks during the 1930-40’s.  This novel showed how hard it was to live in the South and be African-American.  I know you will enjoy this novel as Mildred takes you through the life of her father, Stacy, and the rest of her family.

Holes
By Louis Sachar

 MYSTERIOUS is the word for this novel.  This novel is about a young boy named Stanley Yelnats.  Supposedly his family is cursed.  His great-great-grandfather was the one who had been placed under a curse.  Stanley was mistakenly arrested for stealing shoes and sent to a detention camp, Camp Green Lake.  The children there dug holes all day, every day.  Why?  I guess you have to read it to find out.

Entertainment

     I love music! No matter what kind of day I have had, the music seems to relax my mind. Music, I feel, can broaden a person’s imagination. That’s probably why I love music so much. As soon as I get home, I turn the radio to my favorite radio station and do my homework.
       My favorite types of music are R&B and Rap (Hip-Hop).  They’re the only types of music that seems to attract my attention.  My favorite radio stations are Power 92.3 and 107.5 WGCI. I can always count on them to play my favorite songs.
       I often go to concerts, and I own tons of R&B and Rap CD’s. My favorite R&B artist are Musiq Soulchild, Tweet, Alicia Keys, Ginuwine, R. Kelly, and my favorite singing group is B2K.  My favorite Rap artists are Ludacris, Jay-Z, Missy Elliot, Eve, Ja Rule, and Timberland. I love movies, parties, and fun, but music is my favorite form of entertainment.
