My first favorite things in life are sports, I like sports because it’s really fun, and I grew up playing sports. My second favorite thing in life is animals. I love animals because I have animals of my own, and some of them were wild but I taught them, so now not wild anymore. Also I love riding horses. My third favorite thing in life is adventures. I love adventures, and outside because it is so beautiful, and when you go to a different country it is beautiful there too. My fourth favorite thing in life is crafts, and making stuff. I love crafts and making stuff because I learn it so fast, and I live to paint, color, and lots of other stuff. My fith favorite thing in life is flowers. I love flowers because the smell is so, so good, and flowers are beautiful.

If I had to choose my top five favorite things in life here is what they would be. The first thing would be my dogs. They are one of my favorite things in life because they are super entertaining, they are fun to play with, they are cute, and they make me smile. Next, my phone because I spend a lot of time on it and it is also entertaining. I love using it to take pictures outdoors. Listening to music has to be one of my most favorite things because it helps me to pay attention more when i'm working and it sets the mood when a room is quiet. Another one of my five favorite things in life is playing video games with my friends Sara and Emily. I love playing video games with them because they always make me laugh and they are so sweet. My last favorite thing in life is going to the beach. I love to go to the beach and find things like shells or different animals. I also love to run from the waves and see the sunset over the ocean. These five things are my favorite things in life. I'm sure I could think of many more but I chose these as my top five.

I have a lot of favorite things about life so it's pretty hard to just list five. I would choose family, friends, the ocean, air, and Love. Family is a main part of life. They teach you how to go through life, when you grow up with them. I would not know the things I do today if I didn't have my family. They are a big part of my life and their opinions matter to me just as much as life does. My friends help me a lot, my friends make me happy. I really don't know what I'd do without them. they make my life, they make me the person I am. I'm always so happy to see them and be around them. I just don't know what I would do without them because they are a big part of me. When I Look Out on the Ocean I think about all the creatures in there. The beautiful view. When the water glistens and the waves crash over the beach you think how lucky I am to see this. life is all about Adventures and my favorite one is seeing the ocean. Air we all need to survive but have you thought about it this way. When I go on hikes and I reach the top of the mountain I look over the view I take a deep breath in and a deep breath out. you can just smell the trees feel the wind on your face and you just feel so much better air makes it that much better. Love everybody wants love, that's also a main part of life you want to find someone you love and then you have kids and you spend the rest of your life together you want someone that will always be there for you. That person won't judge you, they will make you feel 10 times better. all of these things matter to me and these are my five favorite things about life and if I didn’t have them then I wouldn’t call it life.

My favorite things in the world are friends, family, dirtbikes,swimming, and also traveling around the world. Here are the reasons I picked those as my favorite things. Well my first one was friends because friends give joy and if I had no friends I would not be happy all the time.
My second one was family. I love my family because they come and watch all my sports and I also love family dinners. Those are the best when you have family. You get to hang out and eat, tell jokes, watch movies that is what I love about family. Dirt bikes are so fun because they make me happy and they bring lots of happiness to me and it's just really fun but hard to Explain. Swimming is one of my favorites because I like it because it's a good workout and calming.Traveling is one of my favorites because I love to see other parts of the world.

My top five favorite things to do are, ride my bike, play with Lego's, play video games, listen to music, and draw. These are my favorite things to do because. Riding my bike is good because I get an extra workout after school. Playing with Lego's is my favorite thing to do because I can build anything with Lego's and it gives me more ideas while building. Playing video games is my favorite thing to do because after a long day of school I get to play video games and sometimes it's relaxing. Listening to music is my favorite thing to do because it's relaxing. Science proves that listening to music helps you think. Last but not least drawing is my favorite thing to do because it helps me sometimes relax or think while working.

(Hunting) I like to hunt because my whole family are hunters. I also enjoy hunting because I get a chance to put meat in my freezer.
(Fishing) I enjoy fishing because it is very fun to be able to catch something that lives under water. It is also fun because it gives me a chance to meet up with friends and show them up with the biggest fish they have ever seen.
(Motocross) This is my favorite thing to do because I am the best at it. I also enjoy this sport because it gives you a chance to let loose and feel the wind on your face. It also gives me a chance to show all of my friends up in a race.
(Eating) I enjoy eating because it makes my belly big and round
(Bmx) I enjoy bmx because it is a well known sport around the world. I also enjoy this sport because I can go ride my bike into town and go and get lunch.

If I had to choose five things in life to be my favorite, here’s what they would be.
1. Spending time with my family. This is my favorite thing because I love my family, and when we spend time together it’s usually watching a movie and eating pizza, shopping, or enjoying a holiday.

2. Animals. These are one of my favorite things because I love petting animals and they are all so cute. Animals are like friends I get to have, and whenever I meet an animal I get attached to him/her and I want that animal to be mine. My dream house has a giant yard and there are horses, dogs, cats, bunnies, and all kinds of things.

3. My friends are one of my favorite things in life because spending time with them is fun. We make jokes, we share food, we just have a good time together.

4. Books. I love reading because there are so many books, and every book is like a new adventure I get to go on. I like to imagine myself as one of the characters in my favorite books while I’m reading.

5. School. I love school because I like having a routine, I get to see my friends every day, and I love learning.

This is a pretty hard topic. I would pick my dogs as number 1. Number 2 would be rollerblading, then would come, well it WAS climbing the bars at school. I guess that's not an option though. So 3 is working on balance. 4 is being with family I guess, and 5 is fighting.

The five favorite things to do in life is playing video, playing outside, drawing, imagining a lot of things, and sleeping. I like playing video games because I can play fun stuff by myself or play with other people or cousins. I like playing outside because I can hang out with my brother, get exercise, and make more friends. I like drawing because I can draw anything I want, can express my feelings into it, or where my imagination takes me to and then draws it. I like to imagine things so that I have something to think of or to do something that will make me not bored. I like to sleep because it is good for you so you are not tired for the whole day.

All throughout history, people had favorites and dislikes, I will be talking about my favorite things in life. The five favorites I will be talking about are, music, art, the Earth, friendship, and family.
Music is important to me because I grew up with it and I love the beauty, sofistication, love, and fun. There are different genres too, here are some common genres that you may or may not know about like, country, rock, classical, pop, EDM, and hip-hop.
Art is my hobby and I love having fun with it and playing around with it. There are so many ways to do art and different styles and sub-genres like abstract and realistic, computer-made art and so much more! I love to paint over all and pait all the time and I’m into the realistic type or the fantastical type. I love art because it brings people together and I just generally love it.
When I mention Earth, I only mean the planet by around 30%. I ment like helping the Earth by planting more trees and plants, cleaning the ocean and stopping greenhouse gasses. I mean obviously Earth is important and we live on it, duh, but I just want to say we need to make the world a better place by keeping it alive!
Friendship is also important because friends are what keep you sane and happy! (sometimes they make you insane but that's not the point.) I love my friends for the most part and they are friendly (maybe.) Friends are very crucial to everyday life and friends are great to hangout with especially because you get along well.
Family is the people you live with, I think you know that. Family is super important and sadly some people don’t have any right now which is heartbreaking like in foster homes or kids that were abandoned or something. Well family is so important you kind of need one and I love my family very much and so should you!
Well that was my blog about my five most important things in life, thank you for reading and I miss you guys all, I’m at my desk and I am really bored and lonely. Bye!

My first favorite thing in life is playing sports. I love playing games like soccer and basketball, they are just fun. My second favorite thing is reading. I like to visualize what I'm reading so instead of looking at pictures, I picture it in my mind. My third favorite thing in life is riding my bike. I love the feeling of cool air on my face as I move really fast down a hill. My fourth favorite thing would have to be Cherry Garcia ice cream. I love all the flavors that were put together and I especially like that they put chunks of real cherry in it. Finally my last favorite thing that I like most in the world is building things. I like to build models the most. They are a long project that requires a lot of thinking and precision.

My five favorite things in life are probably being able to talk and walk because if we couldn't talk it be really hard to communicate with people, and let them know what we want if we couldn't walk we would have a hard time moving around by our ourselves. Number two would be family because I love them so much and I don't know what I could do without them and they're always there for me when I need them. Number three would be friends because they're so kind and they're always there for me when I need them. Number four would probably be money because if we didn't have money we wouldn't be able to buy food and water to survive. Number five would be being able to have a roof over my my head because there's so many people living on the street and I'm lucky to have a roof over my head.

What are my favorite things in the world. We all have our favorite things, but now I will list mine starting from #5 through #1, so let's get started. #5. My fifth favorite thing in the world is sushi. It is my favorite food, and when I eat it it can calm me down. It also has grains, meat, and veggies, and it doesn’t need to be cooked. #4. My fourth favorite thing in the world is the color orange. I could never describe why I like orange. It’s like I was programmed to like it. #3. Squishmallows are my third favorite thing in the world. They are the softest stuffed animals ever and they always calm me down when I’m stressed. I have 29 of them so I always sleep on them. #2 This one’s easy. Golden dojo weather loaches are my second favorite thing in the world, and my favorite animal in the world. They are so cute with their gold color. I love that they can detect barometric pressure too. I used to have two of them before the fire and they would always swim around really fast and crazily when it was going to rain or if it was raining. #1. My favorite thing in the world is the brand new house on our property. This one I can’t really explain the feeling, but I do know that only people who lost their homes and have lived in a trailer for over a year can understand this happiness. Only those people.

If I had to choose the five most important things in my life I would choose family first. Sometimes I hate my family but I could never not love them because they are family. Two would be friends, without friends whats the point of doing anything (especially school ;). Three would be my dogs, my dogs are so, so cute and whenever anyone in my family is sad they will go to them and lick their face. Four would be basketball, i have always loved basketball, but, when my sister started playing I wanted to do it to and now its my favorite sport. Finally five would be video games people are always coming out with new ones and most of them are really fun. Those are the five most important things in my life.

Some things that I really like are softball, hanging out with my friends, playing with dogs, baking, and quads. First, I really like softball because I get to spend time with some of my really close friends and make memories, like winning the championship or something funny that happened while we were all together. Next, I really like hanging out and spending time with my friends. During this time being alone at home has been so boring without my friends. Before all of this Coronavirus stuff happened, I didn’t realize how much I enjoy and appreciate hanging out with them. Third, I love playing with any dog, if they’re nice of course. Dogs are really smart and they have this connection with humans which makes it so much fun to play around with them. Cats are good companions too, but I prefer dogs more. Fourth, I love to bake. When you’re in the kitchen you can just be so creative and get something good out of it afterward. Finally, I really like to ride quads with my friend. It’s fun when you have a lot of property to ride and roam around on. I enjoy a lot of other things too of course, but these five have to be at the top of my list.

My five favorite things in life are my family, Oxygen, my pets, My home, and my Electricity. I chose Oxygen because it makes us live and all the other things live. I chose my family because they are very important to me. I chose my pets because of how good they all are. I chose my home because I’m glad I don't live in the forest. And finally, I chose my Electricity because it’s what powers my things and my home.

My five favorite things in life are friends, family, traveling, snow, and hiking. My friends are one of my favorite things in life because they make me so happy and they're always there for me whenever I'm not feeling the best. Family is an important part of my life and one of my favorite things in life because they know me the best out of anyone I know and they’ll always be there for me. My family is also always teaching me important lessons and without them I wouldn’t be the person I am today. They’re the ones I go to when I need help with something or when I just want to talk to somebody. My family are the people who’ve seen me on my worst days and on my best days and they’re the people who I have the best bonds with. Traveling is another one of my favorite things in life because whenever my family and I travel I always get to experience new things and get to see things i’ve never seen before. Another reason traveling is one of my favorite things in life is because I get to make the best memories with my family and I get to spend time with them. One of my favorite things in life is snow because I love watching it fall and I find it really peaceful. I also love how the world gets so quiet when snow falls onto the ground and I love how pretty everything is. Whenever snow falls all of my worries go away and I realize how lucky I am to live in a place where I get to see snow fall. The best memories I have made with my family and friends are in the snow. I love how I can sit outside watching the snowfall for hours and not get bored because it’s such a beautiful thing to watch. Hiking is also my favorite thing in life because I love being around natural and seeing how beautiful it is. If I had to pick five of my favorite things in life those would be the five I would pick.

I have many things in life that I love, but here my five favorites. My first one is my dog. She is really sweet. She can never say any rude things, because she is a yellow lab, to be precise, and only two years old. She is really cute, and warm. My next favorite thing in life is visiting my aunt Danielle, and my cousins. The reason I like this so much is because one of my cousins is really funny. Sadly they live in Oregon, but anytime I see them we have a good time together. My third favorite thing in life is… Riding quads, I like riding quads because we have a nice hiill to ride down but it's pretty steep and you don't even have to use gas to make it go fast down the hill, and I like going fast. My fourth favorite thing in life is hanging out with friends so you have fun and do whatever you want, Basically. I ride the quad with Grace, down the hill of course! It's pretty fun. My last favorite thing in life is reading, I know most people don't agree with me, but I learn so many things from books, and I find them quite interesting. Those are my favorite things in life.

If I had to choose the top five things that are my favorite things to do in life here’s what they would be.
1. Family. I would choose family because they have done so much for me and they take time out of their day to spend time with me and my siblings and I am extremely grateful for them.
2. Friends. I am happy to have friends because some people in the world do not even have friends to play with or hang out with.
3. Sports. Sports I love, especially soccer. I have been playing soccer since I was 5 years old and ever since I played it I loved it and I still do. I like other sports like basketball, softball, and a lot of other sports but out of all of them soccer is the best.
4. Books. I love books because they are so interesting because they sometimes tell about other people’s life and I do not just get to keep learning so much more about my life I get to see and hear about other people’s life.
5. Music. I love music because when I need to calm down or I am a little tired I always listen to music to make me relax more and it helps me soothe my anger down.

Those are my top 5 favorite things. I have so many more but I could only pick 5 of them.

What are my five favorite things to do? My favorite thing is probably school because I get to see my friends and I learn new things every day. My second favorite thing is to eat, I get to fill myself with energy when I eat food and it also makes me not die. Then my third would have to be reading. I love reading lots of books, some that are very long and some that are very short. My fourth thing would be to play games and watch tv, this basically is what I do for two hours a day (or more) it makes me happier and less frustrated. My last thing is probably to play with my baby brother, he is so cute and lovable he makes funny noises and makes me laugh. Those are my top five favorite things to do.

My Top 5 favorite things in life-
Nature without the Sun and everything that's beautiful about our Earth outside we wouldn't be able to have all that fun, like running around playing frisbee or catch.
family, to have family is just amazing without a family everyone would be lost. For me my favorite part of my family is going over to my cousin's house to have a barbecue and just getting to play with my cousins who are older than me usually like to pick on me.
My phone, Without my phone I would have nothing to do when I'm bored so I would be extra bored. I don't want that.
my house, without my house I would be out in the cold or hot with little shade. At night I wouldn't have a nice cozy bed to sleep in. Instead I have all those things with air conditioning and heating.
Friends without friends for life would be so boring. Who we are supposed to mess around with is who is supposed to be there for us when we need them to. We need friends for lots of reasons and I'm glad I have some of the best friends.

The 5 things that I love the most are Family, friends, dogs, sports, and being funny. I think that my family is the most important because they always make me feel happy and stable and safe. Friends, I think that my friends bring out the best in me, they make me laugh and have fun. Dogs, when you have a dog with you, you never feel alone and they love you unconditionally. sports, I like spots because it is a way for me to express my feelings. Being funny, I love making other people laugh and smile it makes me happy.
