Who Are WE? We're PR3!

As of September, I’ve been a Baruch Bearcat….on the swim team of course. Getting involved in the swim team isn’t really a big surprise for me because I was on my high school team also. Before I even chose which school I was going to, I knew I wold try out for the swim team. It’s really arduous, the workouts; they can go on for hours. But they are definitely worth it, I’m so much stronger than I was in high school. My freestyle has gotten better, and surprisingly I’ve found another stroke I’m good at…breaststroke. I don’t think I can have any leadership positions, seeing as how its by first year in the college and on the team, but I plan on staying with it till graduation year. For some reason, swimming isn’t a summer sport, so unfortunately I’ll be freezing my nads off till January but w/e its all in good fun. =] I love to swim, it’s part of what makes me, me.

Monologue

I will tell you about me, but you will never quite see the whole picture… I am an enigma, so I’ve been told. I am a spark-plug, a bad influence, a deviant, a philosopher, an artist, a best friend, a narcissist, a habitual procrastinator, basically anything that suits me at a given time. I enjoy satisfaction, I do what I can to guarantee it. I have no known fear, but I’m sure it will present itself soon enough. Life can, at times, be hard. “Choice is an illusion created by those with power to fool those without.” I take this to heart, and i choose not to be the latter. I am a character, brooding and sarcastic. My life is the theatre. You are my audience. I am not here to entertain you.

My name is Ahreana Alexis Blair, its sounds serious and for good reason. I think very highly of myself and this is how I show myself to others. I don’t shake easily, nor deter or falter. Once I decide on something I defend it dogmatically. I can be very judgmental at times, and most of the time it is to my benefit. First impressions are highly effective and are often all I need to get a good hold on you. I am consistently divulging myself in aesthetics, its a part of my life, as shallow as that may seem. I don’t care. Most people I meet, are intimidated by me at first glance, apparently I have this serious looking face; I’m sorry I just cant get rid of it. I like making friends but will let some go if I have to. I’m very controlling and domineering, and its off-putting at times. I am what I am, I’m not changing.

Where should I start, there’s so much to tell…. I’m young but only in age not in experience, which is where most underestimate me. I’m a daughter, a sister, a best friend, and anything else I wish myself to be. I can be very impersonal at times, brooding, a classic narcissist, even a bit judgmental but I am what  I am, and I’m not changing. You’ll never get a grasp of who I am in a nutshell, its an impossibility. I’m inconsistent and always changing. Hmm, about college I think my top three concerns would be 1) the amount of kids there – might be easy to become invisible. 2) the amount of things to join – hard to decide what to do now. 3) Time management – I find myself losing track of time while I take my mid-day naps. But all in all, things should be different now that I’m in college, compared to my experience in High School. They have yet to present themselves but I’m sure I’ll come across them eventually.  Hopefully, whatever comes, college will change me for the better. I came in hopes of a new identity, a new beginning, a little niche all for myself…it should be completed by the school year’s end.
