One of my favorite hobbies is playing basketball. Whenever I have free time, usually during the weekends, I play basketball. I would either shoot around by myself or play a game with my friends. Even though I started the sport when I was in elementary school, I’m not that good of a player. But hey, even bad players still like to have fun. Just kidding, I’m like an average player, I guess. Anyways, basketball wasn’t the only sport I played.

During middle school, I got into handball, which is another sport. I think it’s a less popular sport, but it was and still is a very popular sport for Asians. I guess that was probably why I got into it. It was hyped and sort of like a trend back then, so I joined the bandwagon. If you were Asian, you had to play it. My friends also got into it, so we played for a fair amount of time. It was fun at first, but then it got boring because all we did was just hit the ball back and forth. It was only fun when we played against tough opponents. Once high school started, I went back to basketball and started to play a little football, too. Of course, it was touch football; tackling was too crazy.

I like to eat food, but I’m a picky eater. And even though I eat a lot, especially when I was in China, I don’t grow or gain weight. Instead, I can end up losing weight. One of my favorite dishes is sweet and sour chicken. I don’t really pay attention to what I eat, but I’m going to try to eat smarter and healthier.

When I’m not outdoors, I usually watch anime or listen to music at home. I’m not that really hardcore into anime; I just watch a few popular ones (Ex. Naruto). Watching them helps me past time, and some of them actually have a pretty interesting storyline. I also like listening to music, but I just listen to whatever’s on the radio and tune in on the new hits. I don’t really have a favorite genre, but my favorite artist would be Bruno Mars.

Sadly, I have many fears. Even though I hate to admit it, I am scared of heights and I hate the dark. Being scared of heights prevents me from enjoying nice views and makes me reluctant going on amusement park rides, specifically rollercoasters. I also hate watching horror movies because I get scared easily. In the past, I’ve watched many horror movies which probably led me to hating the dark. I always hate the moment when I need to use the bathroom in the middle of the night. And yes, I know that horror movies are all production, but my body and mind just won’t accept it. Hopefully one day, I can overcome my fears.
