Entry #1 - What About a Hobby?

Most people usually have an activity or hobby that they enjoy doing. Some do it because they're bored, and others do it because they want to learn a new skill or enjoy it, whether they are good at it or not. Some popular hobbies are reading a book, doing a puzzle, cooking, running, and the list could go on and on. I enjoy many things as hobbies, like playing video games, paintball or airsoft, working on clocks, and even soccer. But my favorite hobby out of them all is four-wheeling.

People drive vehicles daily, most of the time just to and from work, and some drive ones that are used as a daily driver but can also go off-road. Having a 4x4 truck while traveling on unpaved roads for work is extremely helpful because you can put the car in 2WD when in town but switch to 4WD if you need the extra traction. Four-wheeling is usually referred to when you're in a vehicle with four wheels off-road. Whenever I have time to go out with friends, I typically go four-wheeling with them. I just got into this recently, but I've enjoyed every moment since I started. You can go off-roading by yourself, but it is a lot more enjoyable when you go with others, especially when they also have a vehicle to come along with. Even if you or your friend gets stuck, getting them out with the recovery gear is fun. Assuming that you had brought it along. As of today, me and friends have only gotten stuck once and hopefully won't many other times. Another reason it is fun to go four-wheeling is the different views you get, especially when you go on a trail where you stop and have a beautiful view of a forest or valley.

Trying new hobbies or skills is essential because you may find something you love and won't stop doing for the rest of your life. Even if you can't find one now, you might find it later and enjoy it even more than you would've in the past.

Despite only having gone four-wheeling a handful of times, it is something that I want to do for the rest of my life and maybe one day show my kids how to do it, too. Who knows, if you can go four-wheeling, you'll see a view you'll never forget.

Entry #4 - Off-Roading Brought to Your Home

 After a long day of work, sometimes people want a way to relax and wind down. For example, some people use video games to chill and do something fun. Amazingly, even truckers can play video games in their semi-trucks! Even though they want to get away from their job and get a break, ironically, some play video games that are almost, if not exactly, what they do for their job, like SnowRunner . On April 28, 2020, Focus Home Interactive published the game SnowRunner, developed by Saber Interactive. However, when it was first announced in 2018, it was initially called MudRunner2, but Focus and Saber re-released it as SnowRunner later that year. The two previous games, Spintires and MudRunner, caused much anticipation for the community for these games. It had gotten over one million copies in the first month of release and had two million sold by May of the following year.  SnowRunner Cover - EpicGames Now, what is SnowRunner?

Entry #7 - "FRESH": What Goes On In Farms Today?

Fresh: having its original qualities unimpaired. Fresh is what most people think that foods in the grocery store are. But in reality, most of the grown food, particularly in the US, has lost its essential nutrients. In the movie " Fresh ," they talk about food production in America, how it's changed over the years, and what some people do to make nutrient-rich and healthier food. Fresh hopes to translate the issues industrialization has had on farming, like monocultures, manure lagoons, and unnutritious foods. Fresh (2009 film) They show these problems in the movie by introducing several different farmers, some using mainly pesticides and artificial fertilizer and others working their farms as they would be in nature. For example, Joel Salatin, a sustainable farmer from Swoope, Virginia, moves his cows from pasture to pasture to imitate what they would do in the wild, "always moving." Doing this avoids what leading industrialized farms do: feeding dead things to...
