Well, I enjoy so many activities when I was young like playing badminton, cricket, hockey and many more. But here I would like to talk about my favorite activity playing badminton. When I was young, I used to watch badminton a little bit because I have not that interest in too much. But I got encouragement from my mother to watch badminton because her favorite sport is badminton. After that, during my childhood, I loved that game. So I used it to play countless times a day. Sometimes in the evening with my street mates, sometimes during the school lunchtime with my peers or even sometimes with my family members. Not only that, if I talk about the location, there were numerous areas to play like playground, streets, backyard and many more. But my favorite place was park which was a stone’s throw away from my home and was quite large. There were various reasons for enjoying this activity. The prominent one is that it was an unpredictable activity. Furthermore, this activity taught me how to focus on one thing at a time and how to flee from unpleasant situations. Apart from that, it taught me the value of friendships. All in all, this is the activity that was one of my favorite memories.

When I was young, I used to watch badminton a little bit because I did not have much interest in it. However, I got encouragement from my mother to watch badminton because her favorite sport is badminton. After that, during my childhood, I loved that game. I used to play countless times a day, sometimes in the evening with my street mates, sometimes during school lunchtime with my peers, or even sometimes with my family members. Not only that, if I talk about the location, there were numerous areas to play, like playgrounds, streets, backyards, and many more. But my favorite place was a park that was a stone's throw away from my home and was quite large. There were various reasons for enjoying this activity. The prominent one is that it was an unpredictable activity. Furthermore, this activity taught me how to focus on one thing at a time and how to flee from unpleasant situations.
