This is who I am. I am girl who was raised to obey my parents and become successful so that when I get older, I can help them and take care of them the way they took care of me. I do what I do because it was how I was raised to be. It is not because my parents want me to feel this way. It is because I saw how hard they worked for me. My morals shape the decisions I make. But I see the world with a broader perspective as well. I like to have fun. I like to try new things. I like to live on the edge sometimes and do what’s out of my comfort zone. I like to experience life. I constantly tell myself that I can not die without experiencing this or that, or without seeing this or that, or without going here or there, because then I can’t look back and be able to say I was able to have that experience. I love to appreciate the world and learn everything and anything. I wish there were 1,000 of me, at the least. That way, I can experience everything, see everything ,and learn anything that I would not be able to learn by just having one body. I love life. Sometimes it sucks. There are voids I wish could be filled. There are people and situations that I wish I could change. There are wishes that my life would be perfect- but it's not. Sometimes I fall back, but I try to stay afloat. That’s just a part of it. I do what I do because I was fortunate enough to have a life, so I should take advantage of that. I know I’m lucky. I know it. And it is my responsibility to live the most fulfilled life I could possible live. What I am and what I believe makes me do what I do.
