okay today we're gonna talk about some

0:32

of my favorite things we all like

0:35

talking about things we like and I

0:38

wanted to make a video about some things

0:41

that I like so first I want to talk

0:44

about my favorite dessert this is a

0:47

really hard one for me to choose I love

0:51

a lot of desserts and so it's hard for

0:54

me to decide which one is my favorite

0:57

but I think that right now now my

1:01

favorite dessert is homemade chocolate

1:03

chip cookies notice that I said homemade

1:07

there's a big difference between

1:09

homemade cookies and cookies you buy

1:12

from the store in my opinion homemade

1:16

cookies are much much better than other

1:19

cookies and the perfect homemade cookie

1:22

is the chocolate chip cookie in the U.S

1:26

it's really common for families to make

1:30

this dessert together usually children

1:33

help their parents prepare and bake

1:36

these cookies it's a fun activity for

1:39

the family and the result is delicious

1:42

okay next let me tell you about my

1:46

favorite month of the year this is

1:49

another hard one but I think that my

1:52

favorite month is April the reason is

1:56

because I really like sunshine and long

1:59

day days in April Winter is finally over

2:03

the days get longer and the weather gets

2:07

warmer I don't have to worry about cold

2:10

weather or rain this is perfect for me

2:14

okay how about my favorite sport my

2:18

answer to this question has changed many

2:21

times in my life when I was a young kid

2:25

my favorite sport was basketball I was a

2:29

big fan of the Los Angeles Lakers and I

2:33

played basketball on many teams after

2:36

that my favorite sport was football and

2:40

I really liked the Seattle Seahawks for

2:43

many years then my favorite sport became

2:46

soccer and I started watching it a lot

2:50

but now I don't know if I have a

2:53

favorite sport I don't really watch

2:56

sports anymore so it's hard to say but I

3:00

wanna mention my favorite sport to play

3:03

I've played many sports in my life but

3:06

the funnest one for me is golf in my

3:10

opinion it's the most challenging sport

3:13

it's really hard but once you start to

3:17

get better it's really fun alright

3:20

lastly let me talk about my favorite

3:23

language that I've studied I like all

3:26

the languages that I've learned but the

3:29

funnest one for me to study is Greek the

3:33

main reason why is because Greek has a

3:36

different alphabet I love the challenge

3:39

of learning a completely new system it's

3:43

really cool to see Greek writing and be

3:46

able to read it and understand it I also

3:50

really like the sound of the language

3:52

it's a beautiful language and it feels

3:56

good to speak it currently I don't study

4:00

this language so I've forgotten almost

4:03

everything but I'll definitely start

4:05

learning it again in the future alright

4:08
