What I liked doing as a kid

I loved playing Monopoly, Risk, any kind of strategy game. I'd create board games and even ruined a coffee table with permanent markers once because I was creating a game on it. My parents did not appreciate this.

I played football, baseball, ice hockey, roller hockey and lacrosse. I was an athlete who also happened to do really well in school. It made for some complicated friendships (my athlete friends would wonder why I hung out with nerds and my nerd friends would wonder why I hung out with athletes).

I was the first chair in my school's jazz band. Music is an all inclusive discipline. It involves math, language, creativity, physical fitness (if you're playing a woodwind or if you have to carry a heavy instrument) and more.

I really enjoyed volunteering at a soup kitchen. It was/is such a fulfilling experience to help people who are struggling.

We all love a good story.

When I got Final Fantasy for Playstation, I don't think I left my basement for days/weeks at a time for anything other than going to the bathroom or eating.

War, Rummy, Uno, Poker. My cousin and I would use candy for poker....I raise you a starburst and a now and later.

I sold sneakers at a Footaction when I wasn't in school or studying.
