Assignment 10- Ben Schaeffer

For the majority of this semester, I have sat next to Nick Walters. Outgoing and "chill," Nick is quite the specimen as far as friends go. We happen to be very close. Nick plays lacrosse competitively, and is quite the defender. Something of a Kawhi Leonard. Besides lacrosse, he enjoys basketball and watching the Knicks and the Panthers play. Two teams that have wallowed in mediocrity in the recent past. He enjoys good comedy, and I think he likes Will Ferrell. In class, his goofy personality blends with my goofy yet professional personality, and we have fun, while still learning. With the class bikes, we race to certain distances, almost like Brazilian street racers that race on bikes. He is a good student, as most academy kids are, and he always wants to get better. In five years, I see him at a good college, achieving success. One color to describe him is blue, not only because he has piercing blue eyes, but also he is a mellow guy who can still pack a punch as he asserts his power through strong opinions or his brute honesty. One animal to describe him is a flying squirrel: smart, sneaky, and deceptively strong.
