Team 6: Personal Profile -
Mark
Very tall, thin, fit.
Quiet, confident, rowdy with friends, studious, sincere, ready smile
I have a tight group of friends mostly through the local
Church's youth group who also are in my class at school. I have my
basketball mates as well. The Vinnies group has people outside of
school in it so I am lucky to have friends there as well.
I am a House Captain, work on the School Magazine Committee, play in
the school's A basketball team. I also coach the younger students in
basketball.
I go on the Vinnies Camps during the holidays for kids with little
home life and I'm joining Camp Quality next year.
I belong to the School's Basketball Club and am a member of St.
Vincent de Paul.
| Money?
|
I would
like more - I know you have to work for it. I would like a
high paying job. |
|
Possessions?
|
I would like
to have more than I do - coming from a large family I get
lots of hand-me-downs although my older brothers will often
buy me stuff - especially basketball gear that I need and
they usually get the best stuff for me |
| Religion?
|
I'm pretty
religious and believe that I can make a difference in other
people's lives - the Vinnies saying "I am the hands and feet
of God" |
|
Marriage?
|
Yes I would
like to get married. Some of my older brothers are married
with children now and it is great having nieces and nephews.
So I would like to have that too. But not yet... I would
like to travel first. |
| Politics?
|
I think it
is important to be informed. I would like to be a lawyer so
that I could work with the poor - I think I need to know the
politics behind policies. |
Having a lot of people around me at all times means that I am fairly
tolerant of people's ups and downs. I think I'm sensitive to people.
In an ideal world what would be
your 5 year plan?
To be working.
What things are standing in the way of achieving this?
Not much I work pretty hard but I'm still unsure of what to do at
Uni
What might be some of the solutions?
Just get the highest ATAR as possible.
How will you support yourself if you decide on further training
after school?
I will live at home but I will also have my Part-Time job at the
Deli.
We have strong family values and most of my older brothers have done
extra things with the poor - Vinnies camps etc. I thought I would
like to help by being a lawyer but I'm not sure that is the field
for me. Being honest, being loyal, looking after the
underprivileged.
What is important as far as values go?
Being true to yourself.
