When I was in fifth grade I started to play basketball, and I loved it. At that time basketball was the first sport I ever played in, and now that is my most favorite sport ever. I also play lacrosse and soccer. In the summer I like to sometimes do water activities at my cabin and lounge in the sun on the lake, on a paddle board, at the end of the dock, or on the pontoon or speed boat with a friend. My first ever vacation was to Arizona when I was in seventh grade. Me and my family hiked the grand canyon, went to Scottsdale, and did other things that I don’t remember.

Rock is also poetry, but it don't make much since, the beats really weird and the lyrics are exotic. My favorite hip hop artist is Kendrick Lamar, or Kid Cudi. They make music about things you need to know, or catchy songs. I also like Reggae music, my favorite singer out of that culture is Bob Marley. Yeah al the music is alike, but something about the beat and lyrics makes it totally

One of my favorite types of music would be rock music. I listen to rock because it is loud and it has a lot of bass. My favorite artist would be AC/DC, and they have a lot of great songs but the two I like the most would be “TNT” and “Thunderstruck.” I listen to rock music when I am working out, and it also gets me motivated, and when I am motivated my workouts tend to be better than when I’m not as motivated.

The music type that I listen to is a little bit combination of everything, and also it depend on my mood for example, if I was sad I would listen to Rock and heavy metal type of songs and etc. Sometime I become a picky person and start looking for an old song that I like the tune it has.
