Badminton
I started training in badminton at the age of 8, and instantly loved it. Compared to all the other extracurricular classes I was sent to, badminton was the only one I actively looked forward to. Getting every shot and hearing the satisfying sound of the racket hitting the shuttlecock only heightened by addiction to the sport.Since then, I have trained countless hours and played several competitions. It is an irreplacable part of my life and identity, for it was the place I grew as a person, developed character, and made my closest friends today.
Travelling
After the Covid-19 pandemic, I was excited to go around and explore the world again. Because I was older by the time and able to take on part-time jobs, I was able to make some income and support my travelling desires. And there began a domino effect where I just kept loving travel more and more.Travelling is always the most enjoyable when done with family or a close friends. However, solo travel is also therapeutic in and of itself. I find that I'm able to take more time to myself and bask in the serenity of exploring a new city/country in comfortable silence.
During my time studying in the US, it is my mission to travel to as many cities and as many states as I can. The landscape of the Americas offer so much diversity and beauty, and because it is otherwise so far away from home, I really want to make full use of the time that I'm here to see as many places as I can!
