Playing sports, hanging out with friends, spending time with family, and messing with cars

I used to love to play football with my friends at school.

I really enjoy spending time with friends and family. It is important to me to have time with family and friends to increase mental health and my social ability.

One of my hobbies is working on cars or trying to improve them. I like to try to make the best out of what is around me.
