The world is too vast to be concerned only with what goes on in your immediate circle. There is too much to learn about different ways of life, too much to experience, too much to understand. I am unconventional in my interests, aspirations, and studies; I am invigorated by nearly every academic subject, by world cultures, by sports, by religions, by the arts. I have used the first seventeen years of my life in an attempt to satiate my world curiosity, from its fundamental laws to the rudimentary values prevalent in even the most untouched cultures. Socially, I have friends in all the conventional high school cliques, whether it be the jocks, the nerds, the popular kids, the “bad-boys”, the performers, you name it, I have friends within it. While I am a member of many different groups, I do not identify with one in particular. Instead, being a participant in a multitude of communities has only helped me to understand the variations of people, and has improved my character.
