2 Weeks Could Change The Rest Of My Life...
Growing Up, I Never Thought I Would Be One Of Many People Trying To Land A Spot On MTV's The Real World. As I Read Articles and Blogs From Past Real Worlder's The One Theme That Seems To Play Over And Over Is "Life Changing." Sitting Back And Watching the Votes Add Up and the Rounds Change, I Realize I'm Inching My Way To Just That Very Same Experience. For the Next Two Weeks I Have To Be Patient And Only Hope For The Best, Because If I Get The Green Light, The Vision Soon Becomes A Reality.
There is no "I" in TEAM, But Theres A "Me"
Competitive is my middle name. I've been on losing teams all my life, however I've been improving my game more and more. I've broken records, but never won championships. My jersey number has been retired from high school, yet I never saw my team even enter the finals. I've walked away with two hockey scholarships but decided to stay home for school. If I lose, I only blame it on myself. I'm very competitive but with myself. The only person I point fingers to when we lose, is myself. I know what is expected of me, game in and game out, and when I don't perform up to peoples and my own standards, I feel useless. However, when I perform where I should be, I inspire the people around me to play to their potential. That's the player I like to be. It's about leading your team, not carrying them. I'm still waiting to win my first championship, not break another scoring title.
The Biggest Problem I Face.
The biggest Problem I face today, and everyday is the feeling of not knowing. Since delaying Guillian Barr Syndrome and still waiting in hopes of doctors finding a cure, my mind is put at ease as I continue to live life with my carpe diem attitude. Between skydiving, giving back to the community, and always trying new things, I focus on what I haven't done yet instead of asking myself "will I ever get the chance to do it?" In a way, having Guillian Barr Syndrome is a blessing in disguise. Yea there comes problems with that but I don't think I would have the same outlook and appreciation for life if I didn't have it.
Family Relationships
My parents. Well...speaking of my parents...did I mention they were married "3" Times. Don't bother going back to see if your eyes are bad...it's true....."3" Times. Divorced for eight years. I know...I know...So my relationship with them. At 22 going on 23 soon, I feel like I'm still answering the same ol' questions as I was when I was 10. Where are you going?, Where are you staying? What time are you coming home? I know it's their job to be worried...their parents....but still...I'm 22. I'm a big boy now. Being the youngest out of four...I feel that with the restrictions my parents have put on me...being the "baby" of the family...It is purely responsible to why I have that rebelish attitude towards life. Instead of feeling like I'm on lockdown, I go out and experience life the way I want to. NO RULES, NO RESTRICTIONS...It's my way. And that's it. With this, is probably why I am very close to my grandmother. She listens when I have something to say. She always provides a good positive attitude when I'm excited about doing something. She doesn't shoot the idea down negetively right away and assume bad things are going to happen. My grandmother is my backbone, my strength and without that...I'm helpless....once she's gone.....who's going to tell me to just..."go for it!"
CHEATERS
Whats Up Everyone. Taking A Look At This Online Casting Website, I Original Thought This Was Going To Be A Great Idea. But Apparently, There is A Shit Load Of People Out There Cheating One Way Or Another. There's Just No Way...Someone Can Average Over 2,000 Votes In The Second Day. Not Even The Fonz Know's That Many People. So For The People Out There That Are Voting For Me...Let's Keep It Real And If I Win, I Win With Pride And If I Lose, I Still Have My Dignity Where As The Cheaters......It will catch up to them.
Cheers.
Best/Worst Traits
BEST TRAITS
I don't think it takes long for any new person that I meet to get to know my best and worst traits. I have always been one to live for the moment. At twenty two years old I realize there is a big difference between living for the moment and living in the moment. I choose to live in the moment with a clear vision of where I want to be in the future. I believe in fate, and that things happen for a reason, however, I believe strongly in manifesting your own destiny. In a world that moves so fast, there is not enough time to premeditate all the decisions that determine our situations in the end. I have a vision in my head that I will stop at nothing to achieve. I am usually one to break the ice and have no problem being someones friend. As long as they show me the same respect back. All I want to do is extend a helping hand to those I can in return for the same. I have great friends that are very supportive of me and the choices I make in life. I will do anything for my friends because I know they got my back 100%
WORST TRAITS
Now.....my worst traits...??? I'm stubborn, but I know what I want. I come across headstrong and sometimes overwhelming. I am a very honest person and I believe people sometimes confuse my honesty for just being an asshole. People think I'm cocky, which is fine. But I know I'm confident. Some people look at my size as a weakness but I look at it as a challenge. I seem to talk about myself ALOT, but it's only because I'm so damn good.... My friends have said to me that if it's not about ""me"" then anything else doesn't matter as much. But it's not about them right now, its about me. So let's stop talking about them. I have two sides to me. One where I can sit down and rationalize and another where I can fly off the handle at any moment. Instead of thinking before I speak, I react through emotions which can catch people off guard. But hey....who's perfect?
