I'm Oumarou.Wacthing TV and playing soccer are my hobbies. But I really like more playing soccer rather watching TV.I started to practice my favorite pastime since my childhood maybe when I have 4 years old.I used to play it every day but now I don't have time to practice it more;perhaps once a week.This sport enjoys me and makes me better when I'm not in the mood. It's sometimes dangerous because you can bring your eg or your arm.I would like to qualify as a soccer's player.I star Ronaldo,a Brasilian's player and I would befriend him.This is a good player and a nice guy.So soccer is a very relaxing escape for me.

Jun, That sounds like a really fun surprise party! Did your girlfriend plan it for you? I enjoy trying to surprise my husband for his birthday, too. This year I am taking him to a Cavs game, but it is not a surprise.

Oumarou, it sounds like you are an avid soccer player and fan. You would get along well with my sister - she likes to play college soccer. It's good to have an activity that can put you in a better mood when you have a day that is not-so-good.

Turky, I didn't know you were a soccer player, too! It sounds like the ESL center should have a soccer team...
Good luck with starting your own business. That is what my father does for a living and he is very successful at it.
