Lauren Blackwell, Reporter

While attending Bangor high school, senior Morad Cholakov smashed the competition with his participation on the varsity tennis team; he was ambitiously involved in the literary magazine club and the tv crew. After being a great hit at Bangor-Cholakov plans to pursue business at Lehigh University.

What were your standout classes?

I believe that in all of my classes I strived/pursued to complete those courses with an advanced grade by working hard and diligently. I enjoyed taking all classes, no matter what subject they were, since I believe that a person should be exposed to a variety of subjects.

Who will you remember most in Bangor and why?

I believe that I will remember the teachers who taught their courses in a professional manner and all of my peers that attributed to my growth in education, humanitarianism, and prospectivism.

Describe what you hope your life will be like in ten years.

Currently, I’m quite focused on my education. In 10 years, I imagine my life to be quite different than it currently is. In 10 years, I plan to have acquired my master’s in business administration and hope to be employed in a business firm. Since I have a dream to find my own corporation for autonomous, electric vehicles, I want to acquire the skills and knowledge needed to run a business from the perspective of a CEO. I also hope to acquire financial assets so then these assets can help with the financial perspective when founding my business. Hopefully, if I become successful in business, with the money that I receive I want to use it to help people who are in need all over the world. I believe that we should be people with pure hearts who make other people happy and leave something behind us that will be remembered by the world; and it should be an example for the future generations to come that we shouldn’t be only thinking about ourselves and that social status that we have. We should also look at the people around us, we should help them with what they need, be kind-hearted to them and always remember to smile.

Which event, events will you miss the most at Bangor and why?

During my time at Bangor, I have experienced multiple events. I believe that I will miss all the events since, however the actual event is not that important to me as the people who attend it. I’m going to miss all my peers that I have been close to, since, after all, humans are what make up this world and we need to value each other by being good hearted towards one another.

What is your favorite quote to live by and why?

“What kind of people are you close to?

What kind of path will you take?

The poor teach you to live frugally

Villains teach you to cheat

Self-disciplined people teach you how to make progress

Successful people also teach you how to make progress

Man’s greatest luck

It’s not picking up money or winning a prize

It’s someone who guides you in the direction of success”

I believe that this quote encompasses what type of people you will meet in life, and it makes you aware of what the world is really like, and it teaches you what type of person you should be and with whom you should be friends. The type of person that you are and the people that you are with will greatly impact what type of life you will have and whether you will succeed and become happy.

What do you think technology will look like in the future?

I believe that the technology of the future will be groundbreakingly different from what we are used to currently. The technology will make it even easier for us to communicate and connect amongst each other. It will make our lives even easier since it will aid us in many situations that we will face. This technology will bring us into worlds that sometimes won’t even be reality. Businesses will be focusing on creating products for consumers that are human-centric and use feedback to communicate to user and make them feel like they are home, since AI (artificial intelligence) will be a large part of our lives in the future. However, with all the technological advancements that we acquire should be a warning to us that we must not forget that we cannot let technology control us, we must limit it so it can be stability controlled by us humans.

What car is your dream car and why?

I dream to have an autonomous and electric vehicle that is filled with the latest technology and is covered with the most modern design language. When it comes to what brand I prefer, I would say some type of car brand that is European. The reason why I’m pushing to have an autonomous and electric car is that I believe that automobiles vehicles will reduce the amount of car collisions and deaths. This will make our society a safer and better place to live. Also, this vehicle will be environmentally friendly, which is another way we can help to take care of our home planet and all the people living here.
