Down below, the feet of the cabinet are made of mahogany carvings, creatures that most resemble a lion. The lions have a golden sheen to them. The cabinet is a large, beautifully constructed piece of furniture and art that has both form and purpose.…

    I believe what makes me stand out is that I am an athlete and I keep up with my school work. I try my hardest to keep my grades up. Not only am I trying to keep my grades up, but I am also trying to improve and better myself as an athlete. I also take care of my younger siblings and help them out if they need help in school or with some personal problems they might be having. All of this takes so much of my time and making room for my social life it is quite difficult. I sometimes work to help and support my family. I am a team leader on the field and with my family. I am a person who adapts easily, an athlete who can multitask, and a scholar. With all these things on hand like my three AP classes, soccer, and my personal life, it is hard to…
