In high school, I had this classmate who seemed to be good at everything he did.

He was a running back of the football team and ran hurdles well enough to earn a couple of trips to state. He played first chair trumpet and went to All State for choir. He got straight As, was president of the National Honor Society, drove school bus for school activities, was a Homecoming king candidate and well loved by just about everyone in our town.

He's the type of kid you envy but, at the same time, can't help but like.
