=> most of my friends like to stay inside to play video games, read books or watch TV, but I have a good
hobby of going outside and playing sports i play many different sports in my free time, some of them are
soccer, swimming, volleyball and basketball sometimes i also ride the bike or do boad skating with my
cousin in the park. In my oppinion, doing sport is one of the rare hobbies that actually have good
impacts on me. I am taller than most of my classmates thanks to swimming and basketball lessons that i
take during sometime. My muscles are even stronger than my older brother, and I can last longer than
most other people in any sport, competition. Sports bring me a lot of benefits, and they are also fun
thing to do at the same time. I love the feeling of the cool water run through my face when I am
swimmnig and it seems like i am flying when ever i take a dive under water. When i play soccer, it is very
exciting for me or my teammates to score a goal even though we do not take part in any tournament.
Both of my physical and mental heath become better after i play sports, so it can be considered as the
best thing to do in my free time. Sports are like a part of my life beside other activities and i will continue
to play sports til i am too weak for them
