With the upcoming basketball season starting in a few weeks. I feel fully ready and excited for it. During summer I worked with multiple basketball trainers and teams. The team this year is looking great, and has a lot of potential. There is more size in the team now. During the summer it has just been mostly basketball for me. I started the day with basketball practice with the team and ended the day with the trainer. The basketball trainer, Noah, has helped me a lot basketball wise. He has helped me gain more knowledge in the game. He taught me how to control the ball and the speed of the game. I have improved my jumper with his help. I averaged 17.2 points per game and 5 assists during the season in the league I have joined with my friend in Taiwan. Although we have been downgraded to the lower bracket this upcoming season, we still have a chance in making the CIF if we go 8-0 this season. Anyways, I have come prepared and ready this season to win first place in the league this year.

DJ mix
Mixing music can be fun once you start to learn it but before figuring out the controllers and all the techniques in mixing music, it can be stressful. It all started in the winter of my freshman year. I got my first ever DJ controller, Pioneer DDJ Rev1 It took me a long time to finally figure out how to get the sound out from my speaker and how to put songs in the software. That’s when I decided to start this new hobby. I start mixing songs with friends when hanging out with them and messing around. However, I stopped playing with it in sophomore year because I started losing interest in it. Now that I just got another new controller and mixer I have decided to start playing with it again. There are lots of things to be careful about. For example the most important thing starts with the BPM of the song. Usually if songs are different in between 0-5 bpm then it should fit just fine. Secondly, is the transition. It is not easy as it seems. It takes practices to make good transitions in between songs or from one song to another. Lastly is it requires basic music theory to be able to create good mixes and transitions. Anyways, mixing music has became a big part in my hobbies it helps me relax and just have fun messing with the music. It’s also one of the ways to hang out with friends for me which is why I love it now.
