Who am I blog

I define myself in many aspects. If I could describe myself in a couple words I would say that I’m a devoted athlete, a smart student, and a good friend. I have played basketball my whole life and it is very important to me. I have practiced the game and embraced it my whole life. I know lots about the game and have continually studied throughout my life. I play a major role on my high school team and it has impacted my life greatly not only with the experiences on the court but it has also taught me life lessons off the court as well. Basketball has taught me lessons like controlling my anger, work with others, and patience. Without those lessons, I wouldn’t be who I am today.
I have also learned what it means to be a student. It takes hard work and dedication. Something that is not easy but if you have the determination you can become a good student. I am still striving to become a good student and trying to become as serious as I need to be. Hopefully it will be part of me someday.
I would also call myself I good friend. I care a lot about my friends and would do anything for them. I would want them to know that I am always there to listen to them or help them through anything. I have learned in my life that people greatly appreciate you being there for them or even giving them a small laugh when they are down.
The characters in speak define themselves in different ways. Heather for example defines that she is all bout herself when she doesn’t reach a hand out to Melinda when it is obvious that Melinda is struggling but she still only pays attention to her needs. Ivy however notices Melinda and shows that she is a very caring person and tries to grow onto Melinda. Melinda however, is a sensitive person and pays a lot of attention to what people say.
