The best thing about Stanford isthe people and the friendly atmosphere.
I would describe myself asa very talkative and outgoing person once you get to Know me.
I like to row because The adrenaline rush of racing is also incomparable to anything else. The feeling of pushing yourself to your limits and then reaching past them in order to contribute to the whole boat is also a unique factor to rowing and is a large part of why I love to row. When the water is still you feel like you are flying.
