Traquan Minor, a sophisticated young man attending Worthing High School, is, at most times, defined in one simple word amongst his peers and that is smart.
Though Minor has no specified choice of college in his mind, he is almost convinced in joining either an Ivy League or an Ivy League caliber school in his near future, accomplishing a pleasant SAT score of a 1920 that is often required by these prestigious schools, but “higher scores are in my mind” says Minor.
The future 2014 graduate also plans to either major in history or computer science while in college. History has always been a passion of Minor’s and is one of his favorite subjects; he believes being well versed in the matter will assist him in the future. Computer science, however, happens not to be his other favorite subject which is mathematics, but is an area Minor is unfamiliar with; he is most intrigued by its complexity.
On Minor’s spare time, he is involved in several extracurricular activities at school. His positions as the parliamentarian of the Worthing chapter of the Gents Community Service Organization and a member of the Marching 100 Band take majority of his leisure time though there are other activities included in his “exploits” of Worthing.
Minor would describe himself as “an avid reader”, particularly captivated by the genres historical fiction and science fiction; he enjoys the fact the two genres have the capability of educating the reader as well as entertaining them. Minor’s favorite author is Neal Stephenson because of “his uncanny ability to create different, creative environments” just as in his favorite work, Snow Crash.
Minor also acts as an unofficial “tutor” and possible mentor to the student body, he advises his fellow classmates that getting out of a hole is possible, stating it takes hard work and effort to somehow fix the mistakes. “The slacker can become the overachiever. Believe me, I’ve tried” he boasts.
This young man is of a single parent household, being raised solely by his mother, who he adores. Minor communicates regularly with his father, yet he was impressed by his mother’s ability to raise a young man out of him. There is no doubt that Minor loves his family dearly and it is sure they have birth a man with a promising future ahead of him.
