My Hobby
A hobby is something we do at the free time. I think everybody
has a hobby at least. When we do it, it can reduce our pressure and
stress. Moreover, some hobbies give us pleasure, some give knowledge
and some can give both. Our hobbies may be same or different.
I also have a hobby. I love playing chin-lone with my friends at
my leisure. After studying my lessons, I go to the chin-lone field and
play almost every day. It can be regarded as the traditional sport of
Myanmar. Both men and women can play it as one team or rival. There
are two types of chin-lone. A competition between two teams over a net
is called a sepak takraw. The another one is a combination of sport and
dance called circle kick. I usually play sepak takraw with my friends.
But I am too young to take part in competition. Sometimes, I play circle
kick with my elder brothers in my compound. I can get physical and
mental health by playing chin-lone because chin-lone requires frequent
running, jumping, and quick movements. Moreover, it can improve
flexibility and mobility in the joints as it includes stretching, bending,
and twisting.
I can also get many personal skills. I am more cooperative and
friendly with my friends as before. I can play and work with team more
than before. Having a hobby gives us many benefits.

Duties of A Student
A duty is a task or action that one is required to perform. There
are various types of duties in every field. Being a student also has many
duties to carry out. Every student has to do these duties.
The most important duty for a student is to attend the classes
regularly. Moreover, you must follow the rules and disciplines of the
school. If you break them, you will be punished. You will also have to
study at the beginning of the school year. There are many subjects to
study. So, if you study them when the exam is near, you don’t remember
anything. You must keep your regular study hours and study when you
are not tired. You must listen carefully to the teacher in the class and do
the homework regularly. If you have something you don’t understand,
you must ask your teacher. You must also take part in school days and
activities. You must cooperate with friends in classwork. This will help
you to improve your personal skills. You must keep your body fit and
healthy since the most important thing for a student is the health. If you
feel illness, you cannot study your lessons well. Finally, you must work
hard to pass every exam.
These are the duties of a student. If you fail to perform them, you
will waste time, money, and energy. Being a dutiful student is the way
to success.

A Visit to The Supermarket
Living in the house every day is boring. Sometimes, travelling
makes me feel fresh and happy. I can find something interesting things
and feel the new taste.
Last days, I went to Mandalay with my grandparents. There was
a big supermarket that can buy many things. It is three floors including
underground floor. It is located at the crowded place of Mandalay.
There is a food-stall near this supermarket. Many delicious Myanmar
traditional snacks and fresh fruits can be taste. There are also many
pork chop shops. At the entrance, they are checking everybody for the
security. At the underground floor, kitchen utensils, household items,
groceries, fruits and vegetables are sold. The goods are grouped into
the same items and displayed on the shelves. I can bring the items that
I want and pay at the cashier. Everything in the supermarket is checked
trough CCTV. There are escalators to arrive the upstairs. At the ground
floor, there are many shops that sell clothes, accessories, cosmetics and
jewelleries. There are many different items to choose. If I want to taste
foreign food, I can go upstairs. Every food is delicious and healthy
there. Moreover, every restaurant is clean and beautiful. There are two
cinemas at the top floor. I can watch the film that I wanted to watch.
Visiting to the supermarket is a new feeling for me. There is a
local market in my town instead of the supermarket.

The Season I Like Best
Although Myanmar is located in Asia’s Monsoon zone, the
climate is influenced by its geographical location. There are three
seasons in Myanmar like the hot season, the rainy season and the cold
season. Every season is beautiful and takes almost four months.
Among these three seasons, I like the cold season the most. The
cold season starts from the late October and ends in the mid-February.
There are no more rain and the days are sunny. The sky is blue without
the clouds. It is so beautiful. The mornings and evenings are cool but
the afternoons are warm. The nights are quite cold. So, my family’s
members and me are building the campfire and eating the tea leaf salad
and steamed sticky rice. Drinking a cup of coffee is also amazing. Many
flowers are bloomed in this season. The whole surrounding is full with
flowers and green leaves. This is also the season that the fruits and
vegetables are fresh cheap and plentiful. Walking in the early morning
is good for health. I can see some mist and get fresh cold air. December
is regarded as the sports month. Many sports competitions are held in
this season and I can also take part. As the weather is cool and pleasant,
I can study my lessons for a long time.
It is also the best time to travel. The cold season can be regarded
as the travelling season of the year. My family and me usually travel in
this season. For those reasons, the cold season is the season I like best.

My Partner
I think everybody doesn’t live alone. To become a good person,
we must live in cooperation with other people.
I have many friends but as for partner there is only one. He is one
of my friends. But he is unlike others. I have been friends with him
since childhood. He is honest, helpful, loyal and hard-working. He is
slim and tall like me. He has fair complexion and short straight hair. He
always smiles brightly. I usually go to school and go back home with
him by bicycle. We are in the same class and section. We also sit side
by side in the same row. If I miss the class due to health problem, he
always helps me to study the missing subjects. He usually explains how
to calculate the sums. He also helps me how to answer the questions
and how to do the homework. He is helpful to elder people. Moreover,
he always helps his parents at the weekends. He helps in the kitchen,
water the plants, do the dishes and carry the water. And then, he also
helps the teachers at school. He always obeys the school’s rules and
disciplines. He never breaks them.
I think we may be good friends until we get older. Having a good
friend is the best luck for me.

A Pet I Love Most
Pets are the blessing that only lucky people get to have. They can
reduce our stress and pressure. Today, almost every house has at least
one pet. They may be dogs or cats.
I have a dog whom we call Bo Phyu. My father gave me as a
birthday present last two years. It is male. Now, he is almost three years.
His body is white and legs are fill with black spots. There is a black
heart shape on her head. That is so lovely. He is not big or small. He is
just normal. He can run very fast. He always waits me at the entrance
of my house when I go back home from school. He usually sleeps under
my bed at night. I think he understands what we talk and order him. He
knows his name when we call the name Bo Phyu. He is loyal. He
always barks the strangers with the loud voice. He can save my family
and house at night. His favourite food is fried chicken. At the first time
he got home, he is slim. Now, he has become fatty because he eats four
times a day. I feed him at the right time. I also take him a bath twice a
week. He likes playing in the rain with me. He always obeys my voice.
When I have free time, I play with him. This can make me happy.
I love spending my leisure with him.
