The Most Interesting Person in the WORLD!
The one person in my life that I can listen to for hours and hours would be Samiyyah. She was my Residential Advisor for a summer program at SMASH for three summers straight and is probably the most amazing and fascinating person ever. There is many part to Samiyyah and you find out something new every single time you have a conversation with her because there is always a new level to her and it just never stops. She is so powerful and confident in her own skin and is so easy to talk to. She writes poetry and resembles a strong woman of color and is always so emotional and courageous. She is very athletic and always full of energy but occasionally gets run downed now and then. I think that the most interesting thing is how comfortable she makes us all feel and her ability of talk to someone so easily and reveals so much about each person's life. She has traveled varies parts of this world and influenced her greatly. She always has something to say that has a deep meaning behind it all and just makes the entire conversation come to life. She has always been seen as a mother figure while away from home, and because of that I've come to be amazed and so comfortable around her. Her poetry is what amazes me the most because she's been through so much from what she has shared and I simply admire her so much for overcoming all of it. I remember this past final summer making a song about her, "Samiyyah SAMIYYAH! She reminds me of an Oakland story!" (By the way she was born in Oakland, CA).
