I love competition. I am very competitive person when it comes to sports. Coming from high school where I played football and basketball gives me the right to say I was committed and passionate. The other good thing about playing sports was the parties. I like to party. The small of flowers in the air and drinking soda pop like there’s no tomorrow really gets me going. Even though I work hard in the gym or on the field, I really dislike working hard in other things. Manual labor is such a dreadful task. I would rather workout for an hour then move furniture to make room for additional tables for Pepsi pong.
All of these likes and dislikes come from my personality. I believe personality comes from family values and reflects on the people you surround yourself with. I really don’t like being stereotyped because I strive to have a conservative balance on how unique I am. When people ask about me I want a whole bunch of different answers because people won’t know how to generalize me.
One of my big characteristics or motto is to “live “life. Most people go around life being miserable, always focusing on the negative but why waste the time. There is no reason to let anything bring your happiness down. There’s always a silver lining and everything happens for a reason. Always think what is the best thing to do in the situation right now, and then do it.
Unfortunately that has gotten me in trouble in the past. A couple of summers ago my mom was away and my dad was at work so I threw a straight up rager. If I had a roof in my backyard it would have been blown off. There were so many people and they were jumping in the pool, music playing, everyone is having a good time. Things are going great. It ended a little earlier than expected because it turned out my next door neighbor called my mother and told her what was going on like the dirty rat she is. I felt very ashamed when my mom was screaming curses at me through the phone. I bet my neighbor felt ashamed too because every bottled liquid that I drank for the rest of that summer went straight into her pool.
The season has changed which means school began. College is such a new experience for me. Living on my own is so different than what I have become accustomed to at home. The workload for my studies hasn’t been too severe yet. I try and manage my time the best I can because I feel that’s key to succeed. It’s all about having enough time to do something well and being able to do that for multiple things. The main difficulty I have noticed throughout the school will be adjusting to a teacher’s accent. Many foreigners go to this school and many of the teachers are too. Just recently I had a bit of a communication problem with my anthropology teacher. We came together as a class and had a main speaker to take the floor. Ahem. As a result our revolutionary sides kicked in and handled the problem. One other thing that is somewhat annoying is having to pick out clothes every morning. I went to a private high school so we had to wear uniforms everyday which made it so much easier in the morning. In school there are a lot of adjustments that are good as well. For one thing I have a three day weekend every week because of having no classes on Fridays. Also, these one dollar slices at the pizza place over here is pretty incredible. I strictly only eat pizza on the days that end in Y.
