My name is Tara. I live in South Korea, and I have a problem! I don't know what I like doing. I have no hobbies or interests. So I need your help to choose what I can do.
First of all, do you have a hobby? Do you like reading, sewing or cooking? Maybe you love singing and dancing? I know that in the past it was very popular to be fond of knitting, sewing, collecting stamps, fencing, etc. But today teenagers are so active and ambitious. So many teens love songwriting, dancing and singing, writing stories, ice skating, painting or even blogging. People say that the best hobby is the activity which brings you money. Do you agree with that statement? What is popular in your country?
For example, many teenagers in South Korea like songwriting and singing. Some of them dance very well. A lot of Korean teens are dreaming to be an "idol" or a star. They wish they could catch the attention of famous producers who can give them a contract and make them popular. They are very determined to succeed and work very hard to be the best. But I don't play musical instruments and I'm shy about singing. I do it only when I'm taking shower. I don't think that music can be my hobby. What about you? Can you sing?
