Goal!

I want to learn every sport on the planet. I've played soccer, ultimate frisbee, and various others but I haven't gotten to play sports outside of the U.S. I would love to learn lacrosse one day. When I get to travel the world I could learn each nations sport. Some people like things like surfing or skiing, which seem like fun sports that I never got to try yet. I doubt I'll be very good at them but that's the adventure. When I learn each country's sport I could also learn something important they do and learn that with my adventure. I could tackle two things at once.

If You Wanna Take a Ride with Me

I would love to get to ride on an elephant or other colossal animal besides a horse. Everyone can say they've ridden a horse, but how many can say they've ridden a giant elephant?! Not many that's who. Maybe I could ride a tiger or giraffe. How awesome would that be? That would definately be an experience to share. Maybe I can accomplish this task when I travel the world.

Open for Business

Ever since I was a little girl I have cared for animals. Tall, small, large, brown, or white didn't matter, all animals were animals to me and I wanted to make sure they had the best care. Today I even make sure animals aren't being abused or neglected. I always see the commercials on television talking about donating for animals to be saved and I have trouble not tearing up at the sights they show. I want to go and help them save animals and care for each and every single animal. I want to ask the people what they were thinking when buying the pet and then not even caring for it when it needed help. That confuses me and I just can't seem to grasp the concept of the idea.

Recently I have talked with a friend about creating a benefit for animals of abuse and neglect, or for those in shelters to be saved with the community's help. All animals deserve a right to live. I want to help animals before I die. To see animals at risk each day is horrible. I want to open my own shelter for a variety of animals. I plan to get my masters in veterinary medicine, so I can keep track of the pets at my shelter without having to go someone else for care. This will be beneficial for the community and it will be my dream to see such work done. I can't wait to start on this goal and accomplish it.

Fight! Fight! Fight!

High school. People have grown up and some are getting ready to venture away and take on college. You would figure that teenagers who are getting ready to be on their own wouldn't be immature or start fights, right? Wrong. Teenagers are always coming up with new ways to annoy someone or be as childish as possible. Some children are even more grown up then teenagers today. On the note of teenagers being somewhat idiotic sometimes, they love to fight. One little thing can set off a giant debockle. I have been in high school for four years and not once have I seen a fight. Don't get me wrong, of course fights are bad and shouldn't ever happen but with my school, fights aren't rare. I always hear of someone starting a fight and then I wonder when it happened. My friends inform me of the places and, of course, I'm not there. I wonder why the excitement always happens when I'm not there. I like excitement. I want something to make my day more interesting.
I'm not saying that I'm going to make a fight happen before I leave school but it would be nice. I just would like to see some excitement in my last few days before I never get to see some of the people anymore. While I may not have seen a real fight a couple of students started stage fights this year. They don't actually hit each other, but they make it look like the real thing. They are hilarious and just seeing them makes high school a little better. (and more exciting)
