The things I carry

   Reading the novel The Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien has really opened my eyes to a number of perspectives. I now deeply understand the term "carry" more analytically and I  have a more indept intake of the Vietnam war.

    The majority of teens today would most definitely  admit that their cellular devices carry the most significance of all their possessions. Although I too rely on my cell phone it is not the end of the world when I leave it at home. There is however one item I can not bear to leave at home no matter the occasion, time, or place. To some it may seem tiny and insignificant but if you've ever used one you'd know the potential they carried. I guarantee you if I were to dig to the bottom of my book bag, look in to my wallet or check my pencil pouch I'd find at least one bobby pin. They make my day and hair so much more versatile. Have you ever seen a movie where a woman picks a lock with a bobby pin from her hair and makes a run for it. Well I feel just as alive as that woman escaping, when I have the emergency aid of a universal hair accessory. They complete me and make my world go round. Not to mention what I'd do with out them, probably have an anxiety attack. Just kidding.

    We all dream of dreams, hopefully. The experience of a dream is almost unexplainable and words do not completely serve it justice. Being said I'll attempt to express the very passions and visions I carry, which motivate me every second of the day. Everyday that I wake up is another day and opportunity to prove my capabilities to the world. My enthusiasm to learn all that I can is simply a result of my passion to make a difference in the world. Ever since I was a child the world has always fascinated me in the wonders that it worked for all of those it inhabited so comfortably. The one day that my art gives me a name would be the day I'd savor every God-given second. Also when the day comes that I am recognized for finding one of the world's most accomplished non-profiting organizations know to man, I'd too feel accomplished. Creating a better world for everyone and developing into a confident and independent artist are goals that I've carried for as long as I can remember.

     Both my parents together have individually instilled respectable values into me. From my father I've learned how to be independent and confident in every decision and action that I've ever made. If I don't have confidence within my self how am I to exceed limitations and grow into a stronger individual. I've learn to especially embrace my wild imagination-the depths at which my creativity derives from, and who I am as a person. Without my parents I wouldn't be as enthused as I am everyday,  I wouldn't be as passionate as I am with everything I do, and I am privileged to carry their values and their love with me, everywhere I go.

       From my own perspective I'd describe by self as artistic, optimistic, and very much open-minded.
My artistic side is more intrinsic than it is a learned behavior. Art is my life. I eat, sleep, and think art 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. It excites me like no other hobby and is a blessing that I never forget to count. From experience I can tell you that overcoming a struggle is easier to do with a positive attitude than with a negative one. I like to view the world in a sense that life is more enjoyable with the presence of hope and happiness. I am also best describes as indecisive consequently because I am the type of person that tends to consider variables x, y and z when variables a and b are the only two variables provided. If my immediate family were to describe me they'd say I am intelligent, determined, and respectful but if my close friends were to describe me they'd say I am super-goofy, generous and studious. My personality is an original and one that is hard to replicate. Most importantly carrying my personality has allowed me to broadened my perspective on life's long list of possibilities.

     One of my favorite memories that I carry with me naturally, happened a couple of summers a go at Six Flags Fiesta Texas when I gathered the courage to ride the dungeon drop and for those who know me, know that that was a huge accomplishment for me. Waiting in a that long line only made time for my adrenaline to build up and once my time came to face my fear of heights. I did not back out. No, I screamed to the top of my lungs and kicked uncontrollably. The entire time I thought how could any one enjoy this horrid machine but if there was one thing that I could do over, I definitely would not have done that memory over.
