Looking back on all these years--especially my birthday-- a little black cloud floats its way above my head and then pees out little raindrops...big debbie downer to think about the past 21 years; It seems like everyone else is doing cool things with their life while I coast through living a safe, typical asian-university student life. go to school, take notes, study, sleep, repeat. Everytime an adventurous globetrotter passes through and recalls crazy stories from their life, i get a bubbling sensation in the pit of my stomach. Excitement? Jealousy?
Regardless, my response is always the same "Whoa, cool!! I wish I could do something like that"
The truth is, we all CAN do cool things, but we choose not to. That's why for 2011 I vow to try and do 1 crazy thing a week.
Hold on, rewind... by crazy, I mean memorable/different/try something new/LIVE a little...
WEEK 1: Buy a random crazy looking fruit and eat it.
Object in question: DRAGON FRUIT
Verdict: It was pleasantly deceiving... it looked like it'd be super yummy but instead, it was ... different... Mind you in Barcelona people were eating it up like it was a tasty mango... maybe they're not in season right now.
SO I HAVE DECIDED FOR 2011 TO TRY AND BE HAPPY AGAIN. THIS INCLUDES RELAXING AND BEING BOLD :)
