Dear Diary,
Now it’s a boring Saturday evening and I don’t know what to do, so I’ll tell you something about my interests.
My first hobby is writing: I love to write stories, poems (but I’m not really good at writing poetry), diary entries and non-fiction articles. I also like to read stories, poems and articles by other teens. Fortunately on the Internet there are a lot of sites where teens can write and read
stories, poems and articles.
My second hobby is reading books. My favorite writer is the Dutch writer of books for teens Caja Cazemier. She mostly write about 15/16-year-old girls. But I also like some literature, but I have a prjudice against that: it seems to be written very difficult, but the books that I’ve read
weren’t difficult. But now we have to read a book written in middle ages, I have heard for Dutch. Oh no, I really don’t like that.
My next hobby is surfing the Internet, but because that’s very expensive I’m now only allowed to suf the web after eight o’clock. I like, as I said, to visit writing sites and diary sites like this and I also like some teen E-zines, especially when they are partially designed by teens.
Also a big interest are politics. I like to follow the political news and what plans the parties have and I especially attend the news now that the Dutch government has fallen and they have to think of what subjects must be declared controversial and won’t be managed until the elections in January have passed. Because there are some plans of our cabinet, which has resigned, which I really disagree with and which I hope of that they will be declared controversial. And I’m also attending the political polls now that the elections are coming soon and my favorite party is said to get 15 seats in the Dutch lower house (of 150). I also love to discuss political events with my parents and sister or with other family members or classmates. It’s really cool to hear about someone’s opinion and sd
scuss with them.
I also like music. I like to listen to music: pop music, latin-American music, Russian folk songs and the critical (socialistic) songs which critical people sang in the 70’s.
Oh, now I hear my sister coming home (she went to my uncle), so I’ll go downstairs, but this was my collection of interests.
