The thing I value the most

The thing I care about most or value is my chess trophy. I value my chess trophy because it was 1st place. It also is important because I worked really hard to get that trophy. This trophy is also important because I was undefeated at this tournament. Another reason why this trophy was important is because before the tournament I told my friend that I would get 1st place, and win undefeated. This trophy was also for my grandpa who passed away. I took an oath before this tournament that I would win this for him. Then when I had won the trophy I became so excited. I was so excited because the oath I took became reality. I had one the trophy, and gotten first, and was undefeated. During my grandpas funeral I told him that I won this trophy for him. My grandma then tells me If he was alive that he would be proud of me. I also Value this trophy, because everytime I look at this trophy it shows me what I accomplished. This is what I value the most.

Interesting thing I did over the summer

The one interesting thing I did over the summer was play basketball everyday so that I enhanced my skills.  I play basketball everyday to practice to try out for the team. I also play basketball because it is good for cardio. It is the most interesting I did this summer, because I did nothing else all summer. It is fun to play for fun with other people to test my skills. It also allows me to find out my weaknesses before tryouts. The good thing about playing basketball everyday is it kept me in shape. Another good thing about playing basketball is getting a tan so that I got a darker complexion. Also in basketball it shows me how to cooperate  with my team. Basketball has kept me from any trouble, and kept my in my physical shape. It has also made me more competitive as a person, and to challenge myself to do better in all aspects of my life. This is what was the most interesting thing I did all summer.
