Interests & Hobbies
Extracurriculars:
- Working Out – Not that I am a gym rat or want to be but, keeping physically fit is very important to me. My whole childhood I was never physically where I wanted to be. Not that I was out of shape, but compared to the people I looked up to I was not even close to where they were. Since high school I have been actively working out at the gym five days a week to make sure
I stay in tip top shape. - Puzzles – I love to solve puzzles, especially Rubik’s Cubes. Since my sophomore year of high school I
have been working on bettering my mastery of the Rubik’s Cube. I am able to solve a 2×2 through 5×5, and currently for a standard 3×3 I can on average solve it in 50 seconds. - Tennis – Tennis has played a large role in my life for the past six years. As a child I played briefly, but lost interest because my friends were participating in other activities. It was only until my junior year of high school that I really started to get back into tennis. I started as a junior on the JV team, but quickly worked my way up to a starting position on the Varsity team the following year. Currently I am on theTemple University Club Tennis Team. Although club tennis is not as competitive as I would like, it is still nice to play and keep my skills sharp. Before Temple I played varsity tennis at Salisbury University. This was the greatest test of my skills and will power. Waking up daily for six am practices and playing constant pressure matches really helps one grow into their own game, which is exactly what I did.
- Space – I love watching shows about the universe and how it all came to be. I am really fascinated with some of the theories and individuals who dedicate their lives to finding the answers of the universe.
- Music – I’m a guy who loves his music. My favorite genres are hip-hop, edm, and reggae. When I am relaxing by myself I love to listen to music. It can really pick me up out of a slump and get me going or it can just help to keep me relaxed. Some of my favorite artists are Eminem, J. Cole, Jay-Z, Kendrick Lamar, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Kid Cudi, Slightly Stoopid, Rebelution, Disclosure, Diplo and many more. My itunes is packed with thousands of songs and growing. Collecting music is really a great hobby that everyone should consider.
