I love sports. I played just about every sport there is. When living in Wisconsin, I started to play Hockey. Then I started to swim. After that, I moved to Florida where I picked up baseball, basketball, football, tennis, and golf. Then I moved here to New York and learned how to play volleyball and lacrosse. Out of all the sports I have played, basketball and volleyball are my favorite sports. In the sport of basketball, I played for about 5 years and I don’t think I’m bad, but I still have a lot to improve on. I played on my high school team in Florida named winter park high school (ranked #10 in the nation according to ESPN’s high school ranking charts in 2010). In my high school team was a friend by the name of Austin Rivers; the #10 pick in the 2012 NBA draft, scoring leader for Duke University last year, and son of Boston Celtics head coach: Doc Rivers. He was really good at basketball and during practice, we had to double guard him in order to attempt to slow him down. Basketball is by far my favorite sport and I’ll play anyone just to get some shots up. Not to far from basketball is my 2nd favorite sport: volleyball. I only played volleyball for 3 years, but it was a sport I quickly fell in love with. With no prior experience, except when I played at my church, I made my high school team my senior year and became a starter in place of the co-captain of the team. My high school in New York, Cardozo, is ranked as one of the top volleyball programs in the PSAL and my school had the most Championships in both Boys varsity and Girls varsity. With the guys team, my coach has a record of 210-4 which is the best record in the PSAL. Although I love basketball and volleyball, I love any sport and I am willing to learn any new sport.

        I think that I am a kind student. I dont like to hurt others feelings and I like to make lots of friends. The thing that makes me is my personality. I have quite a unique personality. I am friendly and kindhearted to everyone, however if i participate in a competition, (like sports), I will stop for no one and be almost cold to everyone around me in order to win. I almost seem to be like bipolar when it comes to sports if i get to emotionally involved.
       My top 3 concerns about freshman year at baruch are: getting good grades, getting god grades, and getting good grades. Ever since I entered into Baruch, all I have been focusing on is working hard and getting good grades. These concerns lessened a little bit, however I am still very concerned about getting a high GPA so i dont have to worry about it later in my college career.
       In a month, I think social life and study habits differ the most. In college, i actually have time in between classes to socialize and i have been time managing my schedule very well. In high school, I didnt socialize much and i didnt really study hard. Another difference is that I actually do a lot of things myself. In high school, all i had to do was ask my teacher, but in college, i do everything myself.
       My first year of college would most likely make me into a more open and social person. I have been quite the loner in high school. I seldom spoke to anyone, and i always did everything myself. I didnt even hang out with friends. All i did was wake up, go to school, and go home. However in college, with all the free time i have, i have been able to socialize and get to know quite a few people.
