Who am I? Write a blog entry that defines who you are. Explain to the class what makes up the person you are. What are the biggest influences in your life? What are your goals/purposes in life?
My name is Nick. I go to a large, suburban high school of about 4000 kids in a fairly wealthy area.
To define who I am, I must talk about my music. I have played piano since first grade, and I am in love with everything about music and plan to stay with it for the rest of my life. I have played piano, guitar, drums, cello, baritone, trumpet, recorder (everybody has played the recorder), and various percussion instruments, predominantly the four-mallet marimba. I am a percussionist at my high school.
I plan to major in music education and composition to teach band as a high school director as well as write pieces for a variety of fields.
I have played volleyball for six years and hope to be on the varsity squad my last year of high school. I played on the golf team freshman and sophomore year, only to find that golf was definitely not the sport for me.
The above things are what I do, and, collectively, they define who I am. I have a unique and stupid sense of humor. Although I have participated in many activities to take up all of my time and met a lot of wonderful people, I do not consider myself to be a people person. If anything, I would prefer to sit home and compose. I have a unique and stupid sense of humor.
My goal in life is to save the world. It is what it is. I live one life, so I might as well make the most of it.
I am influenced by the good morals in this world, and the decisions of those around me. I am afraid to say that I am selfless, for that makes me sound selfish, but I truly try to live life as altruistically as I possibly can.
