PART 1

Let’s talk about competition.

Do you like to compete with others?

Yes, I’m extremely competitive by nature, as you may guess from mentioning that I am a middle child with two brothers, I have been in competition all my life whether in sports or lexical knowledge. I’m always up for a good challenge. Just yesterday, I played a game of three-on-three basketball in the park near my home. 

How often do you participate in a contest?

As I had mentioned, I am constantly finding myself in some type of challenge. I would say that I partake in healthy competition at least once a day, whether it is shooting hoops like yesterday, or just kicking back on my couch and playing a multiplayer strategy game on my phone like Hearthstone I’m competing once or twice a day for sure. 

What are your favorite kinds of competitions to watch?

I am an avid tennis player also, so I love to watch the big tennis matches like Wimbledon and the US Open, it is extremely exciting especially when there are two world-class players facing off against each other. I would certainly jump at the opportunity to be at a live game in the future.

Have you ever won a race?
