I watch The Voice. I am in the army. I got back from deployment to Cuba. I like to read books and swim. I like fiction. I hate reality.
My name is Kevin. I finished college at UCLA. I like basketball. I am hoping to play overseas. I like swimming, cooking I read a book about Michael Phelps.
I watched the latest episode of The Voice. Cool! I haven't seen it yet. How's the new season so far? Pretty good. There's one particular female singer with a low voice who has caught my attention. You should start watching too! This season has been really gripping so far. I suppose you haven't got much time for TV with all your hobbies. Have you been watching much basketball lately? I might have to try to get into it. It sounds good! I've been watching a few games lately when I have time, but March madness is coming up so I'll be clearing my schedule to watch all of those games soon! What's March madness again? You know my knowledge of team sports is pretty poor... I much just prefer my swimming solo... It's when all the basketball games really pick up. It can get a bit complicated, definitely different from swimming. That's for sure! Maybe I should try getting into team sports more... I might surprise myself and actually like them! I just like the slow-pace and relaxation life now though, which swimming is perfect for, after all the stress of my job I need my moments of calm outside of work!. I completely agree, swimming helps to give me a break from basketball when I am out of season while still staying in shape. It is a nice change of pace. Where do you normally swim? Just my local, it's only 15 minutes from my house so really easy to just pop round whenever I have a spare hour or so. I've been practicing my backstroke recently but I'm not great so I'm thinking of taking up adult swimming lessons. Have you ever considered that? I go to my local pool to practice too. They have a free swim hour where they have lanes set up and I can just practice my strokes. Adult swimming lessons is a neat idea though. I might look into it so I can continue to work on improving my butterfly stroke. Ah, I've not tried butterfly before. I watch them doing it at the Olympics though and it always looks so impressive. Didn't you mention you were reading a book by an Olympic swimmer? Yes, I read one about Michael Phelps. As someone who wants to one day play overseas it was a great read and helped me learn more about what being a pro athlete is all about.
