Random Note:
Basraj is the oldest of the group, and a very thoughtful, academically-oriented kid. He takes pride in his schoolwork, and his favorite method of procrastination when he has chores to do is to pick up the newspaper or get lost in a book. He can be quiet and reserved around new people at first, but as he gets to know them, soon begins to joke around, share funny stories of what happened at school, and generally relish in his 15-year-old-boyishness. Much to everyone's amusement, Basraj has a supremely sarcastic sense of humor that keeps us all laughing.
