On being an Athlete

I've been an athlete since I was 5 years old. I've done everything from Dance and Baton to Basketball and Waterpolo. Right now I play volleyball and have been doing so for the past 7 years of my live. I LOVE it. I can't see myself ever being inactive. I would go crazy. I love playing any kind of sport , even football with my brother. Its taught me so much about life and it gives me an outlet that other things can't. I was blessed with an athletic body and I'm glad I've taken advatage of it.

Photography

I started taking pictures with a 35mm SLR when I was 14. I don't know why but I loved shooting , and capturing moments that last a second and making them last a life time. My dream is to create photographs that people look at and are astonished. Photographs that allow people to think , and reminisce. I want to create photographs that bring emotions to the viewer they didnt think was possible. I want to capture and savor all of Mother Nature's glory before the human race destroys it.

Writing

I love to write. It relieves stress and allows me to sort out my thoughts. I often only write to appease myself. However , I make attempts at writing short stories or poems , and am always looking for suggestions on how to make them better. When I was young I would sit in my room for hours on end and write story after story. "Once upon a time..." "Happily ever after." However , now the stories have a bit more depth , they are still mostly dreams.

Philosophy/Psychology

I am a constant thinker. I analyze people and the always ask why. I am never satisfied with a simple answer and always challenge the beliefs of myself and others. Answers such as , "the bible says so" do not satisfy me. I need to know more. I love to learn and listen to oppinions. I love to think. I love gain knowledge and wisdom. I'm a people watcher. I see the way others interact and I wonder why and how they came together. I never stop asking why and I never stop challenging my beliefs.
