Yeshiva League Legend

Someone in the Yeshiva League who is known to all. They could be a legend for their fashion, sports skills, or even for absolutely nothing. If you meet them you have to pretend that you do not know them even if you know their whole life story.
Sara: Omg I just met David Goldberg. You know who that is right?
Meir: Of course I know him! He is a Yeshiva League Legend. He is the star of the SAR basketball team, won every single camp intercamps since 3rd grade, and even scored the winning shot at sarachek.

Yeshvin

Quite the good looking one.

Not much of a player but gains the attention of girls easily.

He's kind of intimidating but still is a badass.

He tries to be the most antisocial as possible but people can't help but noticing him and are always trying to figure him out (which is by the way impossible unless he himself opens up which is also impossible) .

Will be listening to sad songs (most probably rock) when alone but is kind of a fun person to spend time with once you get to know him.

Can get really annoying when in a good mood.
Look it's Yeshvin! How can anyone be so good and so bad at the same time!?
