Assignment 11: Katie Chen

Sam Clark. What a guy. I've known Sam for a little over 5 years now, but this year, might be the most time I've spent around Sam. Because seating charts are usually in alphabetical order in most classes, I sit near Sam Clark in almost every single class.

Overall, Sam is just a really nice guy. He's on the speech and debate team, participates in Model UN as well as KYA. He has this sense of humor that’s ridiculously witty but also makes you question whether he’s serious or not. He spells “woman” with a “y” and likes to remind us of that fact on a daily basis.

In middle school, I never really talked to Sam all that much. In fact, I didn’t even know who he was until seventh grade, when he pulled out a vegetable platter and just started eating it in the middle of class and the teacher called him out for it. Because of that incident, Sam became a local legend around our middle school.
