A time when I had freedom of choice and it caused me anxiety was when I had to choose between skating lessons and swimming lessons. This was a very hard decision for me because I was in level seven in skating and would soon move on to figure skating which I had grown an interest for. And I was in level eight in swimming and would go on to competitive swimming and life guard training. The reason I could not continue both because a couple of months before my baby brother was born. It would have been very hectic for my mom to take me both lessons twice a week with my brother. Some days I felt like doing skating and some days I felt like continuing as a swimmer. I could probably say that this was a very tough decision to make. A couple of weeks later, there was an all girls hockey league starting and I wanted to try out. Ever since then I have enjoyed hockey thoroughly. I would have never imagined myself having an interest in playing floor hockey. This has now become my passion and I have won a couple of trophies with my team. Although I still feel like I want to be a skater and swimmer, I am grateful that I did not have to make that choice on the spot because I probably have never known the joy of playing floor hockey.

My first thoughts on the book was that it was interesting, because I think that it’s interesting reading about a diffrent society and life of people that may be diffrent then your own . My connection to the book is is kind of simmalar to the chineese one -child policy which I have read about in a magazine. It allows two children in the family if the first child is a girl. A question that came into my mind about the story was that, What if you have two boys? or two girls? because in the story they mentioned that you could only have one girl and one boy?
On my sister’s birthday I am so confused between two gifts, I liked both gifts. I had freedom to give both gifts. But I didn’t know which my sister would like. I asked my family which gift she would like. They said she would like the first one. So then I made my choice. The gift was a dress.
I predict that a old man will give something to some people and maybe gives something special.
