Passions

Passions

a think piece by Faith, Cambridge University student and member of the Jumped Up Theatre Sound Board

Is there a problem with passion? “What gets you out of bed in the morning?” - it’s a question we’re constantly asking or trying to answer. When we ask questions such as “What motivates you?,” really we are asking, “What is your passion?”

Passion is a motivator for the pursuit of personal interest. It’s powerful and sometimes irrational. It’s why people become doctors, teachers, singers. Without their passion, our hospitals and classrooms would be empty, our radio stations silent.

Dreams for the Future

00:00:03 Speaker 2

So that the photo card possibly make it were easy for us because sometimes in your dreams you see you notice that, the future makes your dreams turn into reality and not just your dreams it’s your whole life. Sometimes your dreams can feel like they are real, but they are not or you try to accomplish a dream that you saw. When I have when I have grown up, I want to travel a lot because it makes me feel happy and I have fun. Also, you can write different friends from around the world, bye.

00:00:46 Speaker 3

I want to be better at gymnastics, but of course it will be hard at first, but if you keep trying hard. And probably by the time you're done, it will be all worth it.

00:01:00 Speaker4

In the future want to be I footballers so I can tell the people, stop pollution and doing gas prices. I want to repay my mum and dad back for everything they've done.

00:01:10 Speaker 5

I hope no more viruses come so such as corona and monkey pox. I really want success in life to be able to help my family. I want to be a biochemist when I grow up because chemicals really interest me. I hope global warming stops because the world is slowly dying. Bills more affordable, so all hard-working families can have some stress release. No more littering so all the animals and even us humans can survive. Racism should stop and fairness should be said for everyone.

00:01:40 Speaker 6

I want to be a doctor or any job that gives a lot of money so that I can pay for my future family and my present family. I want to have a big clean house for my future family to live in. I want to help the environment and have a big garden with lots of plants. I want to live in a clean area with no litter. I want my kids to have an amazing education so they can be genius enough to help their future, for me.

00:02:08 Speaker 7

These are my dreams for the future, I would like to get a PhD, become radiographer, a lawyer, be a landlord and get into a top university.

00:02:17 Speaker 8

I want to be a doctor so that I could save people lives. I hope that people will stop littering. I hope that builds are more affordable. I hope that there will be no more viruses. I hope that nobody cuts down rainforests. I hope that people will take care of the environment. I hope that global warming will be taken care of. I hope no more people will cut down trees around me. I wish that there will be no more throwing stuff into oceans and seas in the future. I hope that I will go to Turkey and travel a lot.

00:00:00 Speaker 1

What I've learned from what I love.

00:00:02 Speaker 2

Games can be very entertaining. Some games can also be educational. It can help you with lots of things like, Minecraft teaches you how to survive by reminding you to eat sometimes. Some people play games for a long time, but they forget to take breaks, to eat and drink. In Minecraft it can help if you're lonely because you can play with your friends or have a fun time. There are also some things that can attack you which encourages teamwork, so both of you can survive.

00:00:35 Speaker 3

Do you want to work on your hand eye coordination? If yes, then crochet is a thing for you. It improves the strength of your hands and brain simultaneously. Do you? Do you need any better in life? Crochet is perfect if you need a calming activity to bring the shower of happiness into your life within an hour.

00:00:50 Speaker 4

Games are a way to escape all your stress, and sometimes games can be educational. Your friends can also play with you, this makes all the stress in your body just instantly disappear. And instead of negative energy, your body will be full of positive energy such as happiness, kindness, and joy. Remember, there is an escape for anything and mine was games and yours might be too. So why not have a go? Because it's just the go and won't affect you in any way possible.

00:01:17 Speaker 5

Do you want to improve your athletic ability? If so, then cricket is the perfect sport for you. It works simultaneously on aim and power, making it a very versatile sport. Cricket gives you the ability to have fun and stay healthy at the same time. Remember, it is easier than it looks.

00:01:36 Speaker 6

Gaming. Games they can teach you to protect yourself like Minecraft. It helps you to survive in the wild and Fortnite teaches you to never give up fight till the end both games are amazing they teach you to play with friends and have an amazing life

00:01:53 Speaker 7

Football. It teaches you to do something you like. It helps you calm down after you win a game. It helps your knowledge increasing football. It helps you to get faster at running and it helps you with your stringer. Also, it teaches you not to get injured and have a good career. You can learn new skills. It will help you breathe better.

00:02:14 Speaker 8

Art, I like art because you can create whatever you like doodles or objects, and sometimes you want to express yourself. It's also great because it helps me expand my imagination. You can do it too wherever or whenever you want.

00:02:34 Speaker 9

Music, music can come in a big variety and the there is always a tune or melody for everyone some different types of music consists of rap, K-pop, pop, music, rock, music and many more that can expand your imagination.

00:03:05 Speaker 10

00:04:03 Speaker 11

Drawing colouring. I love to draw and colour because I have been doing it since I was small. It helped me think because when I don't know anything I doddle and it helps me also when my family need me to do something for an occasion, I can draw it. For example, birthday cards. Also, I love doing craft because it is very fun. I would encourage you to do these things because they are very fun and if you find it hard just watch YouTube videos. They help you when you need to make something. Studying. Studying is good because it helps. It will help you get a decent job and help you in love. For example, you need maths daily, measuring half a cup. I would recommend this because it will help you a lot in life.

00:04:42 Speaker 12

Praying, praying is part of faith. If you don't pray, then how will you be part of that religion? You need to pray to achieve what you want you want if I want to pass the exam. Then I'll pray and study.

00:04:50 Speaker 13

I like gymnastics because it's fun, creative, and amazing. When I start gymnastic, it was harder than I try more and more and now I am pretty good. I do gymnastics because it makes me feel confident. I think that the people should try gymnastics because it's fun, easy and make you stronger. It's more easy than you think. I feel good when I am doing gymnastic. You can invite your friends and have fun time. You can teach your friends how to do a cartwheel, bridge, and maybe split

00:05:18 Speaker 14

Advert for badminton rackets. Badminton in my opinion is the number one sport. It is similar to tennis like what you see on Wimbledon, but you can play with the shuttlecock. It gets you moving and it's good for your arms and legs and, also the core. It is quite a sweaty game but doesn't involve that much running and it is great fun.
