Student and Volunteer in Troy, Michigan

What's good? I’m Hamza. I’m an avid and curious student from Troy, Michigan. I just want to help to try to answer the question of who exactly am I.

A lot of people would also describe me as a level-headed kid with veins of ice. I wouldn't say I am a robot or anything and in fact, my nonchalance really defines me as a person. I can confidently say that it really served me well in my academic career whether it be in classes or standardized tests. I have built an extremely strong academic career but there is way more to me than just numbers :)

Beyond academics and me personality wise, I have my quirky interests mixed with others like travelling and my amateur photography. If we were elaborate on those quirky interests I have, we could talk about how I am crazed soccer fan. I wouldn't shy away from admitting that I have spent hours on hours analyzing games and learning about different tactics of the game.

I am also quite the gamer and do like playing video games during my free time, particularly the FIFA franchise branching off my eternal passion for soccer.

Now if we were to talk about travelling, I have visited many countries ranging from France to Bangladesh to Japan. I always enjoy talking about my travels to friends and even like talking to adults about travelling places outside the US.

If we talk photography, it's related a lot to my travels. I have countless photos of where I've traveled such as the landscape of the French Rivera, the beautiful sunsets on the beaches of Penang in Malaysia, or of the cityscape of Tokyo.

I am also a big fan of music, particularly rap and hip-hop. If you ask me anything about music, I always will tell you Lil Wayne is the greatest artist of this generation-- sorry nothing will ever change my name on that, and no one can convince me otherwise. Also, I'm the guy you pass the aux to. My 200 song playlists are superior to anyone else's.

Well, I've answered a couple of the aspects of the question of, who is this kid Hamza Islam?

Honestly though, there is way too much to elaborate on if we were to completely answer it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
