Who do I think I am? Well that is a pretty good question. I feel that a lot of people don’t really know who they or they try to be something there really not.
When I look at this question my first thought would be that my name is Adam Elfassi. I am 100% Moroccan. I am 17 years old and I’m from Bay Ridge, Brooklyn. But that isnt really what the question is asking. So who do I, myself think I am. Well I think that I’m a nice guy. I like to look out for others, especially my teammates. I try to get them better by doing what I’m supposed to do. I think that i have a good personality.
I kind of really only have one concern for my freshman year and that is that I dont do as well as I wanted. I’m on the basketball team and the grade that you need to be on the team is a 2.0 and I feel like that is not the grade I should be aiming for. I want to be going for a 4.0 even though that might be hard to do, I can defiantly be right near that. The only thing that is good is that there are kids on the team that have good grades so I can always look at them and say I can do it also.
Well as of right now the biggest difference is that are girls in the school. The school that i went to was an all boys Catholic high school, Xavier High School. Also i think that playing basketball in college changes me from a kid that is not on a team. Its a different feeling and it gives you a bigger and easier chance of making a lot more friends rather if you weren’t on a team, it would be harder. In the end i will always be able to look forward to basketball at the end of the day even if im having a bad day. thats the good thing about a team. We become a family and will always look out for each other and have each others backs.
I don’t think i will really change. I like to just stay myself and it has worked all my life. People like me for who I am. They like my personality. I went to a high school that thought and prepared me for life in college. They made things harder there so when I came to college, everything would feel easy or simpler for me.
