Personal Statement
My name is Carmella Muresan and I am currently 16 years old. I am born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio though I briefly lived in Washington D.C. from 4-6 years old. I have always loved school and looked forward to it because of the environment and the education that I have received these past years. Thanks to school, I have met my best friends, while growing my character. I always try to help people whether just it's around the house or helping my grandparents' garden during the Spring. With these actions, I have grown in charisma and dedication, leading to volleyball. I have always loved the sport and I've been playing since the 3rd grade. As a teammate, I always try to be a leader on the court while constantly being there for my friends. I go the extra mile by waking up early to train close to an hour away from my home, as well as try to make it to every practice, optional and mandatory, so I can become a better player. But, volleyball and school aren't my whole life. I love to read, especially greek mythology books (as I'm rereading the Odyssey right now), as well as science-fiction and romance. Movies and TV shows play a big role in my life because I look forward to catching up on a show when I have no volleyball or school work to do. My love of science-fiction movies and books spread to my love of astronomy. My family and I own a telescope and at night we always try to see the moon and other planets, though by living in Cleveland we don't always have the best weather, or we sit in our hot tub and stargaze. With these aspects of my life, I feel as if I am a perfect candidate for your team as a volleyball player, and solely as a person.
