- My name is Maria Jose, but most people call me Majo. The reason I´m writing this blog is because my English teacher gave us an assigment to write about our passion. I enjoy a lot of things, but I would say that sports are what I´m passionate about . Every time I play any sport I like, I feel some kind of emotion, or satisfaction inside of myself. Every time I feel stressed out, I start playing with a soccer ball or anything that makes me move around and I get rid of all my stress.
When I lived in Mexico I ice-skated every morning before school and after school too. I loved that sport, but when I came to Costa Rica, I couldn’t keep skating because there are no ice-skating rinks. I started playing soccer at school, with the school team, and since that day soccer has been my passion. I played forward for the team and we practiced Wednesdays and Thursdays for an hour an a half. I got really excited about any game that was coming because that was when I actually could prove what I had learned in practice. I stopped playing soccer for a while because I got tachycardia and the doctor wouldn´t let me play for a while. When I heard this, I was really mad and couldn´t believe I was not going to be able to play sports. Two months later, the doctor tested me again and said that everything was good, that I could start playing sports again, but that i had to be careful about not over exerting myself. Five months ago I heard about this place called Wear-House Dance Center. WDC is a dance studio with a lot of dancing options, but the one I practice is hip-hop. This is one more passion of mine because I like all the cool movements and I like to dance to that type of music. I still enjoy doing every single sport, but I would have to say that dancing, ice-skating, and soccer are my passions.
