They say than one photography can replace 1000 words. In fact that is why I bought an expensive new smartphone with the best camera on the market. It has 12 Megapixels, Carl Zeiss optics and Xenon flash on it. While a wedding photographer wouldn't dream of using it for work, it's ideal for a novice like me. I like to have a mobile camera with me all the time, as you don’t know when you are going to find something interesting, to take a picture of it. The pictures I like to take vary from simple portraits and landscapes, to panoramic views with professional quality. Sometimes my pictures turn out to be blurry and dark or bright, and I have to take new one again and again. That’s probably because I’m not a professional photographer, just an amateur with a habit of taking interesting pictures. Once in a while I transfer those pictures from my smartphone to my pc, and upload them to social sites, so people can see them and leave comments. |

It was a Saturday afternoon. We had nothing better to do so my sister and I decided to hang out at our cousin's place. Trish is very close to our family because she grew up with us. Her parents left her to the care of my parents when they had to work abroad for many years. She moved in with her parents only recently. So more than just being cousins, Trish is like our sister. It's easy for us to get along because we're just about the same age. We enjoy doing the same things together. Once in a while, she still sleeps over in our place. At other times, my sister and I visit her. Anyway, we caught Trish in a bad mood. She didn't want to talk nor go out, even if we promised to shower her with pamper treats. When we asked her what was wrong, she eventually told us that she was pregnant. There should be no problem with that if Trish was not sixteen. We spent the rest of the afternoon figuring out the best way to break the news to our family. |

Hey, guys! How is everyone? I hope mom is okay now. Has she been to the hospital lately? I don't have to ask about dad because he calls me like every minute of the day. But dad, I am coming home soon and I can't wait to get that big tight hug from you, old man. Billy, my brother, how are you? Mom told me that you made it to your school's soccer varsity team. I am proud of you, brother! But I hope that you are not taking your studies for granted, now that you are busy with practices. I know everyone wants to know exactly when I am arriving. Well, guess what! I am good to go any minute now. I just need to pick some nice presents for friends before I leave. By the way, mom, I look forward to your cooking. So you better have those old recipes ready. I can't believe I will be finally home after such a long time. I have missed everyone and I can't wait to kiss and hug everybody out there. |

The best fishing anyone can do is a relaxing wait by the pole, whether it's on a boat at sea or in the middle of a lake or river, or sitting on a jetty or bridge or on the beach. For more adventurous souls spear fishing can make the it more exciting and sporting for the fishes.
However, for some the best kind of fishing would be one where you get the fish, specially if it's a big fish. Striped bass fishing gives that chance for each and every type of fisherman. Striped basses are abundant fishes on both the East and West Coast. This affords sport fishermen to go out on a boat and fish close to shore, as well as have a relaxing time on a river or lake.
Admittedly, it is quite hard to understand the psychology of striped bass when it comes to what bait they will bite into. It's well known that these fishes' diet is comprised of 90% of other fishes. Besides that, striped bass are also known to waffle between what they'll bite into. |

To be with disability doesn’t mean one can’t do anything for themselves. Only those who have not accepted themselves the way they are have hard time to do something because they don’t see importance of life. Those who are have accepted they are not sick despite of the condition they do many things which surprises many people. The sports psychologist says the people with disabilities are not exceptional since they can play games such as basketball and handball. Those with wheel chairs can also play for competition games in the country and outside the country. Games are good for them because they forget they have a problem and make them to feel normal just like other people. Games make people to forget their condition and feel as if they don’t have a problem at all. The more those with disorders play games the more they appreciate everyday for being a life. Those who have not accepted themselves they have difficult time dealing with other people and themselves becuase they are not happy and others are ashamed of themselves. |

My dad is a very successful man. He is a sport psychologist. He is mainly aligned to golf. So many golf players hire him for training and this is where he gets his money. The many trainees that compete share their pay with him after winning. Mum was really against the idea when dad resigned as a bank manager to take his current job because she never thought that it was this well paying. But dad says he took the job because of the satisfaction he was sure to get other than because of the pay. After all, he had made so much in the years he was working in the banking industry. I would like it so much to take after dad although I am not sure if its golf or soccer I love the most. Even though it is soccer, sport psychology is generally fun and rewarding, both financially and mentally. When I get started, I will be more concerned with the young talent because its easier to nurture the young than the old in my opinion. |

So many people will want to feel how it is like to lead, but we do not have these chances because we do not have leadership skills in us. Whenever we wish we could be elected to lead or we could be chosen by our superiors to be in charge, they pick someone else altogether and this makes us so frustrated. The only way out of these situations is to get some leadership training. This will impart you with all the skills you need to lead. People will appreciate you as their leader ans respect you because you will have the required knowledge and skill to lead them. Leadership is one of the oldest courses in our colleges and universities. This is because from time memorial, people have been taking these courses in order to be better leaders. Even after being elected or chosen, a person will need continuous training to ensure that they are always leading in the right direction. This is the opportunity each of us has in order to ensure that our need to lead is satisfied. |

When a person is born and continue to grow, they go developing likes and dislikes and this is what shapes them to the people that they will be in their adult lives. I have been observing how one year old behave simply because i have a thirteen months old boy who has a cousin of the same age. These two are very different and while my son wants to be outdoors all the time, his cousin wants to stay indoors. My son will cry if he sees doors being locked if when he is inside a house for to him i guess it means that he is locked in and can not go out. When you take him out, you will see a beaming face of some one who is full of joy and is contented. People love outdoors for various reasons. Some say that they do not feel caged when outside while others say that it is because they get to see other things than what they are used to in buildings. I Love Outdoors because i get to be in touch with the outside world not forgetting the nature. Maybe this is where my son gets it from. |
