I am from euphoria, A city enclosed by beautiful peaked mountains, Adventures leading to remarkable destinations. Barbara Kingsolver, the author of the essay "Knowing Our Place", once said, “Our greatest and smallest explanations for ourselves grow from place” (40). This “place” that Barbara is talking about can vary from person to person. It can be as unique as a red barn roof top or as generic as a shadowed bedroom. Everyone has a place like this in mind and it may even change often. Places…

Snowboarding is fairly simple, point it one direction and go. On skis, you have to control both skis and stay balanced. Snowboarding is very similar to other sports, such as, skateboarding, surfing, and wakeboarding. Skiing is one of a kind, you can only really water ski and snow ski, that’s about it. That shows how skiing can give you a unique feeling. Skiing is very important to me and my family. I go crazy when I can’t go skiing. When I see it snowing…

Switching on a Wakeboard Many people have adversities or challenges that get in there way. And that is what make them who they are today.

INTP According to the 16 Personalities Test, I am categorized as an INTP. If we breakdown this acronym we find that the “I” stands for introvert, the “N’ stands for intuitive, the “T” stands for thinking, and “P” stands for perceiving. At first glance, I thought that these descriptions were too general. After reading into my personality, I agree with almost everything the website had to say. It is sort of unsettling to see a website describe me better than I ever could. According to the 16…

steeped my gym shoe. At about 2:30 in the morning we decided to go to sleep. The next day we all woke up to terrible sunburns. If someone touched your shoulders or back it felt like a hard five star. Besides that, many of us had the chance to try wakeboarding, which mostly none of us have tried. I was able to stand up on my second try but got knocked off while trying to do a…

desire to drop it all. Passion is key… right? However once I finish my lab I know it 's going to be a good day because of what follows. Once my lab is over I head over towards the beautiful beach in La Crosse and at 6:45 find myself on the water wakeboarding my heart away. I wake board and jet ski for about an hour to an hour and a half but I always have to remind myself to not lose track of time because it is so easy to lose it when you 're having so much fun. Usually I would be able to tell…

the future because time ceases to exist there. Everything that had worried me before didn’t progress, so there was nothing to imagine in the future. looking around the cove I saw no college, grades, sports, or social relationships; there was only wakeboarding. While my dad tightened the strap on the wakeboard for me before my first ever attempt, I thought about how my family gives me the tools I need to prosper. My ADD induced, hyperactive self looks for constant change, yet fears it at the same…

I have always tried to think of a job that I would like and want to take on, but I could never find one that stuck out. I tried to think of a job that would relate to my interests and the pay requirements that I wanted. Though I never could find a job that pays really well, was in my interests, and that didn’t take a lot of schooling, I have still always had an interest in the military. When I was young, I thought that shooting guns and killing bad guys was so cool, as all little boys do. I have…
