1. Philip:

I’ve always loved to travel. I’ve been to the United States and Mexico, Italy, Greece and Turkey, Japan, Thailand, all over the world. Last year I bought a digital camera. Well, I couldn’t take very good pictures at first but I’ve gotten better. Now it’s a real hobby. I take my camera every where and I’ve taken hundreds of pictures. I’ve even taken a few photos of famous people.

1. Sarah:

I’ve always liked to swim. I mean I could swim when I was 2 years old. I’ve always been a good swimmer, too. and I won a lot of races. I was in the swimming team in high school and collage. Well, I used to swim every day but now I’ve had to stop. You see, I’ve hurt my back last month.

1. Melissa:

I can’t believe I failed math. I mean it was a difficult class and i miss 2 classes when I was sick. But I’ve never failed a class before. I’ve always been a good student. You know, I’ve always gotten As in math, science, English, all my classes. So, well, now I have to take that math class again.
