My Life

When I found out that I had to write about myself, I was stuck. I'm always lost on where to start, or even on what I should write. In that case I guess the best way to start out is by saying that my name is Amanda Sonday, and I will be a senior in the upcoming school year. I can honestly say I'm already excited about getting this year over with, but along with that I figured I would challenge myself, which is why I'm taking this course. Writing is by far my worst quality and I believe with the help of composition, which I took last year, I can do well in this class too. Anyway, enough with the boring information!

McFarland hasn't been my hometown all my life. Until I was six, I had lived in Monona. As my family grew with the addition of my twin brothers, my parents decided it would be best if we moved to a house with a little more space. From that point on I have remained in the same house.

Living in this town has helped me create two of my biggest passions, soccer and volleyball. I started playing club volleyball when I was in seventh grade, and unfortunately my junior year was my final year of playing. I never really played with a very competitive club because I just never cared enough, but I loved getting the extra practice and meeting new people. As far as soccer goes, I just play the sport for fun. I began playing the year I moved to McFarland, but didn't find much interest in it, until I filled in for a player who quit during fifth grade. Ever since then I have loved the game. I never have gotten too serious with soccer because to me it's just a sport I play to have fun. Although these sports don't make up my life, I also enjoy hanging out with my friends, sleeping, and (the common female answer) shopping.

As far as reading goes, it's kind of up there with my writing quality. I will read if I find a good book, but if i'm faced with a non-fiction book, I usually have a hard time zoning in. Obviously this class contains a lot of that type of stuff, and I'm ready for it!

Well there's not much more that can really be said about who I am. I'm sure that I have left a lot out, but for the most part you kind of get what I'm interested in and where i've grown up. Hopefully throughout this course you will learn a little bit more about me.
