1. A few months ago, I moved to this cute little house out in the country. Before I moved, all I did was sit in cafes and read or surf the Internet. Boring! Now I want to spend all my free time outside, enjoying nature. The only problem is, I'm not in very good shape, so I don't like doing any sports, or anything that involves a lot of exercise. I tried hiking once, but I fell down a hill and hurt my leg. Don't get me wrong, I love the outdoors—but what I really want is something I can do quietly in nature.

2. I live in a big city, so I love being around lots of people. My brother is completely the opposite—last weekend, he took me to the country to go bird watching. I was so bored the whole time. I like talking to people and doing creative things. I'd just love to get all my friends together at my apartment in the city and do something. We could have a dinner party, maybe. Or we could bring over some guitars and drums, and stuff like that, and sing and dance!

3. Exercise is really important to me. I like doing things where I keep active, things that are good for my health. My roommate isn't like that at all, though—he wakes up and surfs the Internet for hours. Then he plays his guitar in his room all afternoon. Yuck! I just hate sitting around indoors! I especially hate surfing the Internet. I want to meet other people. I also want to get out and visit new places, like out in the country, where you can see some real nature.

4. I don't really like going to parties or working out at the gym all the time. I don't like hiking around In nature, either, I like to do things that develop my mind or things that teach me about other countries and places What I really love is history. To me, a good history book is a lot more exciting than a fancy dinner party, or some concert, or a baseball game. And there's a lot of great historical information on the Internet. too! I'm not one of those people who sit at home and collect stamps. For me, learning something new is a real adventure!
