Hey everybody! It's Carrington coming back at you with another First-Year Friday interview! Our special guest for this week is Jordan Camacho, soccer player and first-year student at Richard Bland College! Hear about his Statesman experience below:


"Where are you from, and what was the previous school you went to?"


Jordan: I am from London, UK, and I went to a high school called Salvatorian College.


"What brought you here to RBC?"


Jordan: I've always been interested in soccer, so the coach (Richard Bland's soccer coach) got in contact with me, and he asked me to come and play for the team, so I came here to play for the team.


"What is the most important academic goal that you have set for yourself in furthering your education?"


Jordan: I want to get a Master's in Business and achieve a 3.0 GPA or higher.


"What is a personal goal that you have set for yourself while experiencing college life?"


Jordan: As I'm here for soccer, my goal is that I want to win Nationals. I also want to make it into a Division I College/University and try and make it pro.


"If you were NOT playing soccer, what club or sport would you be involved in?"


Jordan: I would probably be involved in basketball, tennis, swimming, or track...I've played a lot of sports throughout my life and I've been good at most of them, so either path is alright.


"Fill in the blank: ___________ is the most important moral/value to me."


Jordan: I think family because family is the most important. Family is always going to be there for you. Your family is you and family is the name that you have to make for your family.


"What do you want to do when you grow older?"


Jordan: I want to be an entrepreneur, so I have a few business ideas that I want to pursue. I also want to be a pro athlete for whatever sport comes my way. When I get to my point of success, I would also like to create a new charity that will help build schools across the world for less economically-developed countries. The way most companies work is that majority of the money that they get from the public don't actually go towards what they're fighting for, and so a lot of people pay themselves off. I actually want to go to those countries and see myself invested and see it for myself.


"BONUS QUESTION: Who is the best interviewer (and person) ever?"


Jordan: It would have to be...Carrington from Richard Bland College! (Me: *does a happy dance*)


...and THIS, ladies & gentlemen, has been another installment of First-Year Fridays! Stay tuned on Instagram & Twitter at @pookiehotsauce for more on First-Year Fridays! Peace out!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
