Nosce te IpsomWho I Really Am

Courtney Adkins

Poem An average girl, In a universe of her own,

Sometimes she is crowded, Sometimes she stands alone.

 Family is her forte,

Something that means a lot, When worst comes to worse,

They are all she’s got.

This girl has dreams,Big ones to say the least,

She has them all in her head, They just haven’t been released.

She will go on to do great things, She will help many people

But no one sees it Because nobody makes a fuss over someone so simple.

An average girl, In a universe of her own,

Sometimes she is crowded, Sometimes she stands alone.

InterestsDrama: I participated in my first Drama Production at Triton Central High School last year; a radio production of the play ‘A Christmas Carol’ By Charles Dickens. I am participating in the play ‘The Twilight Zone’ this year.

Softball: Last year I played 2nd base for the JV softball team and was a pinch runner in varsity. I lettered in Varsity my freshman year. I was voted JV MVP.

Band: I have been in band since the 6th grade (roughly about 5 years), I started out on the tenor sax and switched to alto sax the year after that. I played bari sax for half of 8th grade year. This year is my 3rd year being in marching band with our show “The Road Not Taken” which is based on the famous poem by Robert Frost.

FamilySome people might not know this, but family

means the world to me. I was raised in a Christian home learning early on in life that family should

always come before yourself. My parents got divorced when I was just 7 years old. I have spent most of my life with my family separated, moving from place to place. After a while, we got used to

it. It’s still hard sometimes, but we can get through it together. My parents are very loving

and they are there for everything. My siblings can be annoying sometimes but someday, they’ll be all that I have. I love my family with all of my heart.
