Some of my favorite moments of my teenage years where when I was in musicals for my high school. I started junior year, my second to last year in high school, and I was part of a musical called Little Shop of Horrors. And in this musical there is a man eating plant that this failing flower shop gets a hold off, and as you fed it, more and more blood or more humans, then it would grow really big. And it brought a lot of attention to the store and made the store succeed.

And it was a very fun musical to be a part of, because all I had to do was sit backstage and be the voice of this man eating plant. And it was a lot of fun because while my friends were out on stage, I could be backstage and just and just saying my lines and and do all this voice acting from behind the scenes. And so that was a lot of fun, because I do like being...I do like acting, and I do like being on stage. But, part of me still gets a little afraid, a little stage fright. And so it was the best of both worlds to be able to be in a musical but not have to be on stage at all.

Then another good moment was when I was in Beauty and the Beast and I was the beast. That was a lot of fun because I had a lot of friends that were in the musical, and I was able to be in the musical again, and I got to dress up and have a bunch of makeup on me to make me look like the beast. And it was just a lot of fun overall. There were a couple of hard times, and it was very hot in the costume, but overall, it was an amazing experience. And really, I treasure those moments from my teenage years because there were times that I could just relax and have fun and and not have to focus too much on the stresses of school or life in general. And so it was always just a time to hang out with friends and do something that I really like to do.

And so those are some of my favorite moments in my teenage years.

Did I have a happy childhood? That is a very good question. I think that I did. I do believe that I had a happy childhood. There were, of course, hard times for a few years when I was young. My dad had lost his job and and so we all had, kind of, to work. Or if my parents were out working, then I had to learn how to cook, so I could cook dinner and meals for my family as well. And there were a couple of years that were pretty hard and tight on money.

But after that and during the rest of my childhood, well, even in those experiences, we were still able to have a lot of fun. A lot of good memories were made in that time. And so always during these times there are ups and downs. I think it's like that for everyone, really. But overall, I I do believe I had a happy childhood. I had three older sisters that we're all kind of close to me in age and so we could always hang out and we would always talk and play, and so that was always a lot of fun.

I also had a lot of friends that lived around me in my neighborhood. And so, if I was ever tired of my family or anything, and I could just go outside and play with some good friends of mine.

Something that was kind of hard for me was when I turned 11 my family made the decision to move from our house in Utah to Texas, which is a very long ways if you've ever been to the States, and that was very hard change for me. It was quite the difference in culture and a lot of my friends and everything.

But I actually really enjoyed Texas and after a couple of months, I started to prefer Texas to Utah. And ever since then I've just grown a love for Texas and all of my memories that I have there. So with that as well, I think that I did have a very happy childhood. I always had...we always had enough money to provide for our needs and always we were able to make the best of what we had, and I think that's really the important part is being able to be grateful for what you do have and and keep on going on. So, yes, I do believe I had a happy childhood.

One of my favorite childhood experiences was when my family and I took a trip to the Redwood Forest in California. We were living in Utah at the time, and my sister, my oldest sister, had just graduated high school, and so for a fun family vacation before she went to college. We were all able to drive to California in a day or so and go camping in the redwood forest. Now, if you don't know what a redwood tree is, it is one of the largest things on earth, one of the largest living organisms on earth.

And so these are trees that are thousands and millions of years old and ginormous, there is a photo of me and my family, and we're all holding hands and spread as far apart as we can while holding hands still. And the whole length of our family chain didn't even cover the half of the of the trees. You know, how big it was around and and so that's a little bit of a help to know how big these trees are.

But we were sleeping and camping in this in this forest, and it was a super, super beautiful, peaceful area. One of my favorite memories from that is there are a bunch of pine needles on the ground, and there were so many of them that it made the ground super soft. And so when you would sleep or when you would lay down, it was almost like you were laying on a mattress. Also, you could walk around the forest floor without shoes on, which was super nice, because you wouldn't be able to feel any rocks or spiky things. And so we would always just walk around our campsite and around little trails and such without shoes on. And that was fun. One kind of funny memory as well from that trip is our campsite was on the edge of this giant slope, a giant hill that was very steep. And one morning my parents were making food, I think, for the breakfast, and my dad got a little close to the edge of this slope, and my sister was out there helping him and and he kind of lost his footing for a little second there. And so he was flailing his arms, trying to get his his balance again. But he still couldn't. And he almost fell backwards down the slope. And the one closest to him was one of my older sisters. And instead of going and trying to help him, instead of trying to grab his arm and stabilize him, all she said was "bye dad". And so, thankfully, he didn't fall backwards. But that is always a funny memory that we we joke with this sister about is that she didn't try to save my dad. She just said, "bye, dad". And yeah, so that and many more experiences during this trip, that made one of my favorite memories from my childhood.

Some cool hobbies. Well, some of my favorite hobbies are...well, I love playing sports. I'm a very active person. I love to play soccer, I love to play football, baseball, basketball. I love to go running. So those are some of my hobbies. I love to play soccer with friends. So, one thing I love to do is meet up one day with a bunch of friends and we go and we play soccer for a couple hours and we play a bunch of different games, and it's just really fun. Also, it's a really fun way to meet new people, which is something that I love.

And then something else that I love to do is rock climbing, so it is actually really, really fun. It's very good exercise as well, which is a really good bonus. So, with rock climbing, what I normally do is...I pay to go to a rock climbing gym and then I can go there. And so I have some friends that I will go with, and sometimes I'll make friends there and we'll meet up and go rock climbing another time.

But all it is what the one thing I love to do most there is something called bouldering. So bouldering is where you go rock climbing on a fake rock wall inside of a gym. But you don't use a rope, but you do not go very high. You only go about 15 to 20 feet up in the air, no higher or else you could get injured. And so there's some very padded soft mats at the bottom, just in case you fall. But it's a really fun sport.

It is something that is very difficult. It takes a lot of practice to be good at it, but it is something that's very fun. And yeah, that's a really fun hobby that I have. Something else I love to do is...I love listening to music. I love listening to music with my friends. Something I love to do is go driving a car with a friend, so we'll pick up a friend in my car, and then we'll just go drive for a while and we'll just listen to music and talk. And it's something that I really enjoy doing. It's really fun.

And then also, I just I like all kinds of music, all genres of music. So I really love finding new music or listening to different music from different cultures or different genres. So e really love that. And then another thing I love to do is another hobby. I like to read. It's something that's very relaxing. Something that I think most people can enjoy. But my favorite books is The Hobbit. It is a very good book on bond.

Yeah, So these are some of the hobbies that I like to do.

The coolest place I've ever visited. It's a very hard question. I have visited some very cool places, but I would have to say that my two most favorite places that I visited would have to be Spain and Jamaica. So I visited Jamaica with my family when I was 17. It was very fun, is a really cool experience. It was just nice to be with my family, But what I really loved about Jamaica was that it was very, very beautiful, very tropical, and we went and there was waterfalls, and so we were climbing on waterfalls and in the water, which was very fun and refreshing. And then we also went to these kind of lakes out in the middle of Jamaica, and we did Cliff jumping there and swimming, and it was just really pretty and a really fun experience. So that is why Jamaica is one of my favorite places that I've been.

And then Spain. I visited Spain, and I'm currently living in Spain right now. But the reason I love Spain so much is because of the people here. They're awesome. They're super friendly, and also all of the history here in Spain, there is a lot of cathedrals and a lot of castles everywhere. And I am from the United States and we don't have the history like that. Their history there is very different, and it's a lot younger. The country is a lot younger. So being here in Spain, visiting Spain is very special. It's very different. It's very unique.

And also another thing I love about Spain, other than the cathedrals and castles in the history, is the food. I love the food here. Not only do I love the Spanish food, but also, since Spain has such diversity, there's so many cultures here, so many different types of people that live here. I've been able to experience a lot of different kinds of food. I've been able to taste foods from all over the world, from Brazil, from Ecuador, from Venezuela, from Mexico, from Cuba, from Chile, from...well, any anywhere you can think of I've tried food from there. I love food from all over. I love trying foods from different places. So that's why I would say I love, I have loved visiting Spain. It is it's been such a new experience, and I've been able to meet and make a ton of friends, which is something really special. But that's why I love both these two places.

Last weekend, well, I got up for early on Saturday and I got up early and I drove and I went to a rock climbing gym, which is something that I like to do for fun, is something like to do for exercise, but also, it's a very fun hobby of mine. So I got up early and I went to the rock climbing gym, and I was there for about three hours, which is a long time. But I was there for that long and afterwards I came back home and I showered and I got ready for the day.

And then I made myself some breakfast. And for breakfast I made breakfast burritos, which were really, really delicious, and they were very good. And then after that, I went over to a friend's house and we hung out, and we watch some football together, which was really fun. And we also played some games together, and we ate some snacks, maybe eat some chips and stuff, which was really fun. And then after that, we went out to lunch and we went to a restaurant and we got some grilled cheeses for lunch, which is like a sandwich that is grilled that has melted cheese in the middle and the bread is toasted on both sides, and it's really good and after that we met up with some other friends and we hung out with some other friends as well, and we decided to go to the movie theater and watch a movie. So we went to the movie theater and we watched a really funny movie. It was really fun to hang out with my friends. And then after the movie, we all went and got ice cream, which was really good.

I got some strawberry ice cream, which is my favorite. And then also after that, me and my friend came back to my house that night and we just relaxed at my house. We talked, and we just listen to music, which was really fun. And also my sister was there and my other brother was there. And so we all just spent time together, and we talked. We're up until late just relaxing, having fun. And then after that, my friend drove home and that was my day, and it was really fun.

Or sometimes we will just stay at home. But we will play games together, which is really fun. And then if I hang out with my friends on the weekend sometimes we'll do the same thing. Sometimes we will go to a movie or we'll go out to a restaurant with friends, or sometimes we'll go to some place fun, like, go somewhere to go bowling or go to an arcade or will go to a park, something like that, depends on the weather. If there's good weather, then we will tend to do something outside or somewhere where we're not in our homes. But if there's bad weather, we will usually go to a friend's house or friends will come up to my house and we'll hang out. We'll watch a movie, we'll play games, we'll eat food, things like that.

Another thing I like to do on the weekends is watch football because football games are usually only on the weekends, are usually during the weekends. So we will watch football as a family. We will cheer for the team that we like, which is really fun. And also watch football with my friends, which is really fun. Yeah, also, another thing I like to do on the weekends is sleep because during the week I work, and so sometimes I don't get a lot of sleep during the week, and I'm very tired by the weekend, by the end of the week and so being able to rest and sleep and catch up on my sleep during the weekend is something that is really nice and fun.

And another thing I do on the weekend is I go to church. And that's something I do with my family. We all go to church on Sunday during the weekend, which is something really nice, and special that we do together as a family.

What I like to do for fun is...I like to hang out with my friends. Something that I like to do with my friends is going to see a movie, go to the movie theater and watch a movie, or sometimes just go to one of my friend's houses and watch a movie there.
