Skating

Skating is something hard to do because you have to be able to know how and where to make your board go. I have liked skateboarding since I was a kid but just recently started skating again this year after 4 years of not skating. My favorite kind of skateboard is a girl, my most hated skateboards are World Industries or Wal-Mart skateboards. My favorite skater is Rodney Mullen.

"To know what is right and not to do it is the worst cowardice"
Confucius

Reflection: I believe this means that when you choose to do the wrong instead of the right it makes you look like a coward because you aren't willing to pay the consequences and just take the easy way out.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT

Music

There are various types of music. Not everyone likes the same style of music. But  my favorite style is Reggae. Some famous reggae bands are Bob Marley, Dirty Heads and Sublime. Dirty Heads is my top favorite. But Marley is a classic.

"Always do Right"

Reflection: I believe he is trying to make a clear statement to just do the right never the wrong. An example would be like when you get more change from when you buy something and instead of keeping it you choose the right and return it.
