I do three sports: soccer, gymnastics and dance. I go to Old Donation School for dance. It’s a gifted dance school just a couple of minutes away from here. I like jazz and hip-hop. I feel calm when I’m dancing. That’s how I calm down. For soccer, I am on a travel team. The farthest I go is Richmond and the Outer Banks. We had a game and this player kicked me in the back of the shin to get the ball from me. And gymnastics I might put hold on because it’s 7:30-9:00 p.m. and I will be tired. I like to do roundoff back handsprings on the floor and press handstands. I can do a roundoff back handspring on the grass. It’s a cartwheel/backflip. I also like art. I like to do clay because it feels cool to touch and then paint it when it’s dry.
Have you thought what you want to do when you grow up?
Not really, but what I’m thinking about being is a person who finds things deep underwater. I love animals. I like to do horseback riding sometimes, not always. And the good thing about what I want to be when I grow up is…well, I might be a zookeeper, somebody who studies animals – I don’t know what that’s called – or somebody who goes underwater to find cool new things because 50 percent of the ocean has not been explored yet.
