Hi my name is Henry Chen, and now let me introduce myself and talk about my interest and background a little bit. I was born and raised in China until my family decided to immigrate to the United States. I finished Middle school and High school here, and now I’m happy to enter college and exited to meet more people.
I have many hobbies. One of my hobby is volleyball. I fell in love with volleyball since I was in high school. I was on a school team and we won some games against other schools. I was really exited to represent my school on a volleyball team. I still play volleyball in college during the weekend. In addition, I like to go hiking. Last summer I was hiking in the Rocky Mountains in Wyoming through a school named NOLS. I had a good time hiking there. By the end of the summer, we hiked up to over 100 miles in a month. Sometimes I even go to central park to do a little bit hiking there. Central Park is a good place for hiking in the city or picnic. Furthermore, I like to watch movies. My favorite movies is “The Day After Tomorrow”. Yes, it’s a disaster movie, but I like it because it motivates us to enjoy our lives and improve our environment. Recently, I started to workout more because everyone is so tall and big in college. I want to be like them too! That’s why I have food picture as my album, but that’s not the only reason. I love to eat!!! I just don’t gain much weight from eating. Maybe for some people that’s a good thing, but for me it’s kind of frustrating people I have to eat a lot more to get big!
Anyway that’s pretty much what I like to do in my life so far. I’m hoping to find more hobbies and interests in the future to make my life more meaningful. Also, I value great friendships. I’m hoping that I can find some good friends in college and share the things I like with them. Good luck everyone!
Thanks for sharing! 100 miles in a month is incredible!
