Who I am?
A brown haired, brown eyed, athletic, confident young man is what people see when they look at me. There is much more to someone then just what you see on the outside. I think it is hard to answer the question "Who am I?" without giving some background information on myself. I am from a small rich historic town east of Syracuse, New York called Cazenovia. I believe that the person I am today is because of this small town and the people and the community in it. I come for an extremely hard working family where both of my parents came from nothing, this has also made me a pretty hard working person myself. If I was writing about this a few years ago it would be a much different paper. I understand now that I am very similar to the way my parents are. I worry a lot about things and about my friends and family the most which I get from my mother. I also believe I get my temper from my mother. I can put up with a lot of things but then I get to a point and I just freak out and get really mad. I think I get many personality traits from my father such as being almost being ruthless and straight to the point when I need to tell someone something that they do not want to hear. I also get my comical side from him because he is a very funny guy and I am always trying to make people laugh. I also think that I have personality traits that I don't get from my family rather I get them from friends or from experiences that I have been through. I believe I am a very mature and responsible person from an eighteen year old kid. Along with all these good personality traits there are also things about myself I don't like such as I come off sometimes as being cocky. This is one thing I can't stand about myself but I have always been the kid that hates the "cocky" kid because he thinks he is too cool for people and I don't want people looking at me that way. I think a lot of people would change things about themselves if they had a chance but I don't think I would really. I have totally confident with who I am. My parents always said that I have the possibility to do anything in this world and I still believe I can and for that I wouldn't change myself at all. A brown haired, brown eyed, athletic, confident young man is what people see when they look at me. When I look at myself in the mirror I see a brown haired, brown eyed, athletic, confident young man and I am happy with myself.
