Outside the classroom

I enjoy a variety of activities in my leisure time. I am an avid reader and enjoy all genres of fiction. During the past year of distance learning, I have found a love for video games. Not only is it a great escape from reality but it has been a way for me to remain in contact and a way to spend time with my friends. I am currently in the process of writing my own book. The book is based off the premise of a video game that my friends and I enjoy, called Ark. I also continue to love the game of baseball. Although I stopped playing for my high school due to the demands of IB, I currently play in a recreation league in a nearby city.
