I love my friends because they are always there for me supporting my every move. They are such great and true friends. We love to eat out and just spend time together. We do some things like playing games, exercising, going to the beach and many more. I am just missing two of my friends in this photo ]]> 2022-01-25 11:44:48 UTC https://padlet.com/batallonesmaria/2ja00a2cqiee0l7p/wish/2010976144 batallonesmaria https://padlet.com/batallonesmaria/2ja00a2cqiee0l7p/wish/2010976481 This is my family. I have one older brother who is in the states now (Illinois). I have my mom, my dad, and my dog. In my family there is just the 2 of us, my older brother and I. It gets boring sometimes, but we keep each other company. Hopefully he can come visit us some day.]]> 2022-01-25 11:45:02 UTC https://padlet.com/batallonesmaria/2ja00a2cqiee0l7p/wish/2010976481 batallonesmaria https://padlet.com/batallonesmaria/2ja00a2cqiee0l7p/wish/2011007252 This is Tsunami Saipan Swim Team. I've been swimming since I was 4. If you do the math, that would be 9 years! I enjoy spending time and training with my teammates. They always encourage me to do better. They are such a big motivation to me. I enjoy doing ocean swim competitions with them. I hope to do many more and achieve many of my goals.]]> 2022-01-25 12:07:05 UTC https://padlet.com/batallonesmaria/2ja00a2cqiee0l7p/wish/2011007252 batallonesmaria https://padlet.com/batallonesmaria/2ja00a2cqiee0l7p/wish/2011012560 I love listening to music, but I especially like this song. It's very catchy and I like the lyrics and story it's trying to share. ]]> 2022-01-25 12:10:58 UTC https://padlet.com/batallonesmaria/2ja00a2cqiee0l7p/wish/2011012560 batallonesmaria https://padlet.com/batallonesmaria/2ja00a2cqiee0l7p/wish/2011025688 I am very passionate about my studies and I want to make my family proud. I want a job like a pharmacist or detective because they're good paying jobs and they're my interest. I love solving stuff and my family inspire me to work in the medical field.]]> 2022-01-25 12:20:13 UTC https://padlet.com/batallonesmaria/2ja00a2cqiee0l7p/wish/2011025688 batallonesmaria https://padlet.com/batallonesmaria/2ja00a2cqiee0l7p/wish/2016903523 These are my pets. I have one cat and one dog. I've had my dog for 6-7 years now. He's been with us for a long time. My cat has been with us for almost 2 years. I love taking care of my pets and growing with them. It's very relaxing to me. They are my best friends. ]]> 2022-01-27 22:45:25 UTC https://padlet.com/batallonesmaria/2ja00a2cqiee0l7p/wish/2016903523 batallonesmaria https://padlet.com/batallonesmaria/2ja00a2cqiee0l7p/wish/2016909002 I've went to Japan twice for my sport. I've went there in 2017 and 2018. There is a competition in Japan called "Tokyo Jr. Sprints" it is for swimmers to compete at the age of 13 and below. I really enjoyed my time there and experienced so many amazing things. The stadium was really nice and big, I would love to compete there again. We went to train with a swim club in Japan. We also went ice skating, bowling, went to see the crowded cities, eating the strawberries, going into an aquarium, riding amusement rides, taking the train, seeing a glimpse of Mt. Fuji, and we even came across people in go karts on the road dressed up as Mario, Peach, and Luigi! Apparently that's common in Japan. While being there, we heard many ghost story as well. It spooked me the whole trip but I really enjoyed the feeling. ]]> 2022-01-27 22:51:38 UTC https://padlet.com/batallonesmaria/2ja00a2cqiee0l7p/wish/2016909002 batallonesmaria https://padlet.com/batallonesmaria/2ja00a2cqiee0l7p/wish/2019896905 Before COVID was a thing, my team and I used to go to Guam every year and compete. I went 3-4 years in a row (I'm pretty sure). I win and accomplish my goals each year. We compete, try amazing food, meet new people, and go to the mall. Hopefully we can continue to do Guam Championships when things get better. ]]> 2022-01-30 13:44:42 UTC https://padlet.com/batallonesmaria/2ja00a2cqiee0l7p/wish/2019896905 batallonesmaria https://padlet.com/batallonesmaria/2ja00a2cqiee0l7p/wish/2019903758 This is the CNMI record I broke when I was just 8. I have two records, one official, and due to the lack of a professional pool, one unofficial. I broke my second unofficial one recently when I was 12. First one is still undefeated, I am very proud of that. ]]> 2022-01-30 13:53:55 UTC https://padlet.com/batallonesmaria/2ja00a2cqiee0l7p/wish/2019903758 batallonesmaria https://padlet.com/batallonesmaria/2ja00a2cqiee0l7p/wish/2019910437 This trip happened somewhere in September of 2021. My team (Sensyu group) went on a fun boating trip after an ocean swim competition. This was my most favorite way we celebrated. We went snorkeling and saw many ocean life. We saw small sharks, turtles, corals, colorful and variety of fishes. We also went to Mañagaha, there we ate snacks, tried to catch octopuses, told funny stories, walked around the island, and snorkeled more!]]> 2022-01-30 14:03:36 UTC https://padlet.com/batallonesmaria/2ja00a2cqiee0l7p/wish/2019910437
