WHAT TO DO

I am kind of upset with myself. I recently had to write a personal essay for my English class, and I have to say it took a long time for me to even think about what I wanted to write about. I wrote about three different essays and when I read over each of them, there was no moral to the stories that I told. They didn't answer that question Why. It makes me ask, if any of the events that I went through in my past, actually made an impact on my life. I'm sure they have, but I honestly didn't see it when I wrote it down. So that really got me upset. I think that the essay I submitted was the closest I could come, but I know that there is more to that story that maybe I am missing. It did happen almost 20 years ago so I guess I have a reason for not actually remembering every event that occurred.

In brighter news though, I think I found a color for my living room. Since I didn't like the blue, I'm going with a Brown tone. I think the natural look will increase the colors I want to use as accents. I am far from being an interior decorator, I'm more of an Outside type of person. Very much into extreme sports. So when it comes to colors and mixing colors and pulling different textures into the mix, yeah, I'm not your man for the job. But give me a parachute and a free plane ride up to about 12,900 ft AGL and you can bet your ass I will jump out of that perfectly good airplane.

Extreme sports to me is a way that I can live on the edge. I really enjoy the thrill and satisfaction it gives me. It reminds me that we live everyday with respect to the world around us. Also, I fully believe that taking things to the extreme allows you to actually feel one with nature.
