My favorite way to relax is:  Writing poetry and creating original music from scratch.

The College I will be attending is: I will more than likely be attending Morehouse college, if not, it's Southern Illinois for me.

My dream profession is:  To be a professional analyst for ESPN or at least write for the magazine.

Biggest concern about college:  Adapting to adulthood.

When I go to college I most look forward to:  Meeting a lot of new faces and places.

The piece of advice that I would give to a high school freshman about college is:  College is not about parties, socializing ALL the time, and just having fun, it helps assist you in your evolution into establishing yourself as an accomplished adult. And maybe once you have finished that, you will truly appreciate the quality of knowledge that you have received when you have that six-figure job after the famous "college life" is over.

My hero is:   My family because they have all contributed into helping me become the kind-hearted person that I am today. And I want to say Thank You all.
