Let's get to know each other better

Let's start with the first blog. Already when I was a little girl I wanted to become a teacher or a singer. It is my job now to go to school every day and once a week I sing in a local choir. My other hobbies are reading books and cycling (when I have time). I am a very fast reader and if I really like the book, I can read it in one or two days- holiday time of course. What about you? What are your hobbies? What sports do you prefer?
