some folders are showing on the sidebar in finder

I recently learned that if i keep pressing on the FINDER icon it will show me the list of folders, but some folders that showing are not on the sidebar.

I am wondering why only these folders are showing not other folders in my Documents or Pictures.

MacBook Pro 13", macOS 10.14
