Transcript

When I was a kid, I was very adventurous. عندما كنت طفلاً، كنت مغامرًا جدًا. My friends and I used to skip school and go to the video arcade. كنت أنا وأصدقائي نتغيب عن المدرسة ونذهب إلى صالة ألعاب الفيديو. The sense of freedom I had when I got my drivers license was unmatched. كان الشعور بالحرية الذي شعرت به عندما حصلت على رخصة القيادة الخاصة بي لا مثيل له. Riding the bus to school was the worst. كان ركوب الحافلة إلى المدرسة هو الأسوأ. When I was in school, the teachers would hit us with rulers.

عندما كنت في المدرسة، كان المعلمون يضربوننا بالمساطر. My parents were emphatic in their religious beliefs. كان والداي حازمين في معتقداتهما الدينية. My family used to have an annual reunion. كانت عائلتي تعقد اجتماعًا سنويًا. We used to go fishing at the river most Sundays. كنا نذهب للصيد في النهر معظم أيام الأحد. For my birthday, all my extended family members would come over. في عيد ميلادي، سيأتي جميع أفراد عائلتي الممتدة. I’m still recovering from my childhood. مازلت أتعافى من طفولتي.

When I was in college I loved going to rock concerts. عندما كنت في الكلية كنت أحب الذهاب إلى حفلات الروك. My taste in music has changed so much over the years. لقد تغير ذوقي في الموسيقى كثيرًا على مر السنين. I have traveled to 15 different countries. لقد سافرت إلى 15 دولة مختلفة. I still remember the first time I saw the ocean. ما زلت أتذكر المرة الأولى التي رأيت فيها المحيط. There are some freedoms I miss about childhood. هناك بعض الحريات التي أفتقدها في الطفولة.

Mostly I just love being an adult! في الغالب أحب أن أكون بالغًا!
