Games I like to Play

 

The game I like most is badminton😍. All it takes is a willing partner , Two rackets and a shuttlecock. We do not even need a net. After all we simply enjoy hitting the shuttlecock to each other. My sister and I spend hours doing this just about everyday.😊 We are not going to be world champions . It is simply great fun. 😃 

We used to do this with two old toy rackets. Since then our father had bought us real , although cheap, rackets. I must say we enjoy the game even more. Sometimes even my mother comes to join in the fun when she has the time for it.

The other game I like to play is table tennis. We have an old table, two bats and some balls. So on some days we play table tennis instead. This is a game that requires more skill. We cannot even hit the ball on to the table half of the time. This can be frustrating. So we go back to badminton which is far easier and more fun. 

Since we play outdoors we are at the mercy of the weather. We often have to pause when the wind is too strong. It is difficult to hit the shuttlecock property when the wind blows it away. Sometimes it rains, making it impossible to play. 

I did play other games in school like volleyball and netball . somehow they did not seem to be much fun. So I sticked to badminton and table tennis. 😃

From the first time I joined the 'Brownies' and then the guides life has been a rich experience where the important things in life were etched on my mind. 😊  I was taught to honour and respect my religion, my parents, my country and in fact everyone. 😔 I also taught me to be helpful, kind and considerate, It taught me mainly to be bold and courageous. The many guide rallies I attended brought me in contact with the guides all over the Sri Lanka. It w...

  Money is of course very important for human beings to lead a decent and satisfying life. Unlike animals and plants. money defines the existence of human society as we can not live without it. Money is an important exchange for food, shelter and clothing. Many people believe that money the root of all evil. But  contrary to that , I believe and agree that money is the key to human began using money for exchange of goods and services instead of he barter trade which we popular hundreds of years ago. humans work to earn and income that would enable them to bring food to the table, cloth themselves as well as indulge in pleasure that can be obtained only through money.  when we able to afford goods and services, it inevitably grants us a lot of happiness, satisfaction and stability in our lives.
