This guy looks like he's having a blast! I'm jealous! I wish that i could be out on the water right now. Something about it just makes me feel so good. It's like nothing else matters because it's just me and no one else is around. i think that's the reason that i love being out in the wilderness so much. give me a bush and a tent anywhere anytime and i'm happy. i think that it's important for people to find what brings them true happiness and to persue it for the greater good of their well being. the same is true for un winding at the end of the day. I've never understood how people can just go to sleep and not worry about what happened in their day or what will happen in the days to come. I can't go to sleep without some sort of stress reliever. Sometimes it's going for a jog(which doesn't happen often anymore because of my knee), lifting weights or writing in my journal. Yes i keep a journal. My friends all make fun of me for it but it helps me to deal with things and put my life in some what of an order. Sometimes i think that we miss out on a part of growing up...like the fun part. Highschool is syupposed to be the time for us to screw up and make asses of ourselves but i don't have time! Between school, homework, extra curriculars, and still managing to work 40 to 60 hours a week i don't have time to party all night and sleep all day! sometimes i feel like i've missed something... but i've gotta' keep going. Applications for school are going to have to be in soon, and as always there's got to be some homework that i haven't had time to get to yet. sometimes i guess it just feels overwhelming to have to grow up so soon!
