Where Home is for Me
Where is Home? Everybody has different hobbies that he or she would like to do for excitement or relaxation. They can be either physical activities like jogging, skateboarding... or mental activities like reading, watching movies, playing computers game or what not, listening to music... and it just depends on each personality honestly. But, for me, soccer is my hobby because it 's part of my life and I cannot live without it. Home for me was a soccer field. Throughout my teenage and childhood life, I was focused on one thing and one thing only, and that was soccer. I often thought about when I could get to go and play soccer. School mattered to me, but rarely as much as soccer. Whenever I got on the field I already knew I was home. The reason why I say that soccer was home for me is because it made me feel energetic and alive on the field.
Unlike other sports, Soccer is the most energetic sport ever. Soccer is amazing to me. It takes a lot more skills than you think. That’s what makes soccer the greatest sport ever. The skills in soccer take a long time to fully master. I don’t even think anybody can master soccer. There are so many new things I learned at practice every day.

As I watched the ball go up in the air, I closed my eyes and heard the ball striking the crossbar hitting the net. I looked up and I started “cheesing”. I just scored a goal increasing the lead for my team. My team began jumping up and down on my back. There is no I in team and that was the first thing I learned during my soccer
