Hello! My name is Darius Echols and I am a sophomore here at Whitney Young. I just transferred here from St. Laurence in Burbank.
Let's start with a little bit about myself. I JUST turned 15 on September 8th. (EDIT: At the time of this post, it was September 9th.) I'm usually the youngest in the grade, which sucks. I live with my parents on the south side. I do have two older sisters, but currently they do not live with me. One is a freshman at Illinois State University and the other lives in North Carolina. I wish I had at least one brother...
Both of my sisters graduated from Whitney Young, one last year in 2009, and one WAY back in 1996. For the most part, I transferred here because of the feedback I got from my sisters. They say that there's an excellent environment here and everyone is really nice and intelligent. Through my three days here (At the time of this post), I can already see that. I am glad to be spending my remaining three years of high school here.
In my spare time, I love to play Guitar Hero (I'm really good) and play piano. I like to hang out with friends, go to the movies, go bowling and to read. I am interested in learning Spanish and sign language. Learning different languages can go a long way when it comes to life.
Some of my favorite shows are Ghost Hunters, Family Guy, Hell's Kitchen, Everybody Hates Chris, and The Office. My favorite foods are pizza, seafood (especially crab), chocolate-covered raisins, and ice cream. I LOOOVE music. My favorite genres are alternative, rock, jazz, grunge, and pop rock. Some of my favorite bands are The White Stripes, Coldplay, Nirvana, Queens of the Stone Age, Gorillaz, Kings of Leon, Rush, and TV on the Radio.
Well, that's a little bit about me; I hope you enjoyed it.
I look forward to posting more blogs over the course of the school year.
