By William LIFELINE: IMPORTANT PEOPLE, PLACES, AND THINGS
Slide 3
MY GRANDFATHER, One of the most important people in my life is
my grandfather. He owns a campground in Spruce Pine, North
Carolina. I try to see him as much as I can, but because he lives
so far away, I only see him at Christmas, summertime, and sometimes
Labor Day weekend. He is a good person to look up to. He has taught
me things like good manners, how to set up camp in the wilderness,
how to cook on a grill and many other things. I have been with him
to many fun places like Disney World, Dollywood, Virginia Creeper
Trail and others. I am glad I have him because he is a very good
influence every time I see him.

RALEIGH BOYCHOIR The Raleigh Boychoir has been an important
part of my life for 4 years. My mom suggested it to me one day
because she knew I liked singing and music. At the time, I had
started playing piano, so I knew singing was right for me. Being a
part of the choir has brought me many places such as Wisconsin,
Maryland, and Boone, and next summer I am going to London. I have
also been broadcast on a radio station and have sung the national
anthem with my choir a Durham Bulls game. Every since I joined the
choir, my ability to sing and to read music has improved greatly
and has brought me many opportunities that I wouldnt have had
otherwise, such as being in an opera production.

PIANO Piano is a very important part of my life. I have been
playing since the first grade and it has been fun. When I started
playing, I started with simple songs, then got more advanced. In
the third grade, I entered two competitions. One was called
Federation and the other was called Young Artists. That year I got
a rating of good. The next two years I got superior, the highest
you can get. I am going to do Young Artist and Federation and I am
going to try to get a superior again! Someday I hope to be a
musician and play piano and compose music for other peoples
entertainment.

LIBRARY Reading is one of the most important things in my life.
I started reading when I was in kindergarten. I read about I hour a
day anywhere I am, but my favorite place to read is the library. At
the library, it is quiet enough for everyone to read in peace. I am
most familiar with the Cameron Village Library. At the library, I
can pick out any book I like because I have my own library card. My
mom loves my reading habit because I read books over and over and
over again, so she doesnt have to buy me many books. I am glad I
can read.

NEW ORLEANS New Orleans is the most important place for me. I
was born there on March 1, 2000 (during Mardi Gras season! ) at
Lakeside Hospital. I lived there for 4 months, then had to move to
North Carolina because of my moms work. We visited there when I was
2, but I dont remember it. Ever since then I wanted to go back
there, yet we havent got the chance because of money and work. New
Orleans is the reason I like the New Orleans Saints pro football
team and LSU college football team. I hope I will be able to go
back there someday.
