I am a little lost. I have no idea what I want to do with my life. I’m 16 and I know I have some more years to figure it out, but there is something inside of me that needs to know now. I need help. I look around at all of my classmates and they know what they want to do. They know why they are in IB. I however, do not. I used to know. I was going to take French all four years of high school, go to Hawaii Pacific University study abroad in France and become a marine biologist. Yet now, that is not what I want to do anymore. I would love to say I have artistic talent and become an artist or a clothing designer. I would love to say I am athletic and become a professional sports player. I would love to say I am good at anything. But when I sit down and reflect on myself the only things I am good at are… well see that is my problem. I can not think of anything I am good at. The only things that make me happy anymore are cooking, and Younglife. Maybe I could continue being a wyldlife leader and them become a younglife leader and start working for younglife? Maybe I could become a chef? Open a little bakery , sell cakes. That would be fun. I’m just not sure if I would want to do that with the rest of my life. there was a point when I wanted to be a doctor. Now I don’t want to do that either. I need help. If you actually took the time to read that and have any suggestions please let me know.
Taken by my dear friend Austin check out the rest of his pictures . This kid is my best friend. I have no idea what I would do without him.

Can you eat it?
-
Me:
It looks so yummy!
-
Kendra:
I wonder if you can eat it.
-
Me:
I don't see why not. It's just snow.
-
*Kendra picks up a hand full of snow and licks it*
-
Kendra:
Mmmmm
-
Me:
Well? What does it taste like?
-
Kendra:
Earth. Really good earth.
It tastes like earth
I got home from Heber with Kendra and her family today. While there we played Wii Fit, and danced about in the snow. I brought some home :) it is in the freezer now. I absolutely LOVE the snow and the cold. I have decided I am going somewhere were it snows for college. NAU? Perhaps.
Kendra and I could not, for the life of us, figure out how to make a snow man. We know you role three balls of snow, but we could not get the snow to role. So we gave up. We started taking pictures with a fake decoration snow man instead of a real one. I will have those up soon. We made those amazing little Portuguese shrimp things here mom makes! Beside the snow those little shrimp things were the highlight of the trip.
Sometimes
Sometimes I wish I could see them in all of their majesty, in all of there malice. I wish I could touch, hear, and smell them. Sometimes I wish they were real and not only in my dreams. They haunt me while I sleep. Beautiful, and hideous. When I wake and I realize it was only a dream my stomach fills with dread, threatening to spill over. But I can not tell a soul for maybe they are real. If I told of them, they would surely kill me. And sometimes I wish they were real.
