I feel uncertain and confused and I am just drifting. I am trying to live my life and find my path, by doing the things I want, and trying to dream dreams, I am just trying to find my life. I don't know what I am, or where I'm meant to be going, but I want to get there and stop feeling lost and unsure if I have any value or purpose.</p><p>I am just searching for myself in all the wrong places.</p></div>Why do You do What You do?https://wdydwyd.ning.com/profiles/text/why-do-you-do-what-you-do-362009-10-16T14:30:00.000Z2009-10-16T14:30:00.000Zbriana barlowhttps://wdydwyd.ning.com/members/brianabarlow<div>Briana BarlowArt and ArchitectureSection 1CWhy do you do what you do?I feel like God, and my family are part of the main reasons that I do what I do. I should probably start by stating what it is that I do. I am a student at UCLA and I also run track and field for UCLA. I try to go to church every Sunday but it gets harder as the practices get longer and the homework begins to pile up.My father was so excited when he found out that I was being looked at by UCLA for track and field he told all his friends and the whole family and I honestly did not want to go because I didn’t think I could make it at such an elite institution I was very intimidated. But my Daddy was so happy I felt I couldn’t let him down so I decided to come.I run track and field because it is new to me and so far I love it. I had played volleyball since I was 9 years old and had been planning on going to college for volleyball but when God presented this opportunity to me after much thought I realized that maybe volleyball wasn’t the sport for me and that it was time for something new. Some days practice is super hard and I question my reasons for torturing my body three times a day and I realized that I’ve grown to love this sport and I love how proud my family is of me.Speaking of family, we are having a lot of problems within the family (not the immediate family) that started with my aunt’s murder. And because of this horrible event some of our family has become really hateful and have chosen to take it out on my immediate family. My uncle who, along with my other aunts and uncles, helped raise me has now become bitter and cruel towards me especially and this has driven me to want to succeed just to prove him wrong.</div>
