The Facets of LaRon

The Facets of LaRon

By: Kaitlynn Hamby, ENGL 336

LaRon is from Prince George’s County, where he and his older brother were raised by his parents. His parents are not only still together today, but they were also high school sweethearts. His brother is four years older than he is. LaRon was raised as a Christian, and continues to practice those beliefs today.
A long time ago, he was a linebacker on a football team and he still remains interested in sports, especially football, to this day. Even though he enjoys football, he is not on the school football team because it has been a long time since he played. He has been to a few professional football games. The last time he went to a game, he saw the Redskins beat the Bears in 2013. His other favorite sport is basketball; he is a Cavs fan. He enjoys watching basketball and football, but he does not enjoy hockey or baseball. He enjoys going out with his friends, but he is not outgoing with new people. 
His favorite candy is lemonheads, his favorite junk food is cool ranch Doritos, and his two favorite foods are beef stew and rice. He prefers Coke to Pepsi. His favorite vacation was a trip to Cancun when he was 12. This vacation was his favorite because there was all you can eat food, he could order room service whenever he wanted, they were provided a golf cart, and it was an overall nice environment. When he was younger, his favorite subject in school was English because it was the easiest for him. His favorite movie genre is rap, and some of his favorite artists are Kanye, Drake, and Eminem. His favorite color is blue and his favorite art form is photography. His favorite TV show as a kid was Naruto, and his favorite TV show now is How To Get Away With Murder. His favorite movie genre is comedy, especially 21 Jump Street, and he enjoys eating chocolate chip cookies while watching it. 
 There are plenty of other interesting tidbits of information about LaRon, such as: if he were forced to dye his hair, he would dye it blonde. Although he loves rap music, he occasionally listens to pop music and finds that embarrassing. If he were going to travel anywhere in the world, he would go to Paris because he thinks it looks interesting, and there are a lot of things to do there, such as visiting monuments. If he ever became President, the first thing he would do is find a way to increase job availability. If he ever got arrested, it would probably be for speeding. He’s been to a Drake concert. If he could give his younger self any advice it would be: “just do it; take the risk”. He’s a city person, and his idea of the perfect weekend is having fun with friends while still having time to relax. Finally, he gave up his interest in fashion because it was getting too expensive. When first asked what the best thing to ever happen to him was, he originally replied that he couldn’t currently think of anything, but after a moment, he decided getting a car was the best thing to ever happen to him. 
 LaRon is majoring in Mass Communication and enjoys Marketing in particular. In five years, he pictures himself with a job in marketing; working a lot and helping his family.
