Feeling Kind of Lost!
I look at what people are doing around me and I find that I envy them for what they are doing. I feel like I'm copying everyone else but am not doing anything for myself. I did cake decorating and Dana has done that already and loved it! I am all about art and again, Dana, not only started doing that first, that she motivated me into doing. I swim with 10 ladies (very few are my age) regularly and swimming is definitely not original. My New Year's resolution is to do a triathlon but I'm not sure if that's for me or b/c Coach Markell is doing an Ironman.
Is it possible to like and be jealous of someone at the same time. Dana (coach for my swim team) is my age, has a masters in Kinesiology!?! She's run a marathon and did cross country in college. Markell has a B.S. in that. I know my job is cool too, but even then, I'm not an original. You have Clair, Alaina, Christina Aguiar, and many other females in my field.
I want to learn violin. I don't have friends or acquaintances who are doing that but that's the only thing I feel like is slightly original about me. I wouldn't mind going to school to be a pastry bakery chef but am not sure if I'm creative enough to go far (ie open my own place) but I'm sure I could just work at someone else's bakery.
This could just me whining and I'm sorry if it seems that way. I just feel like I have way too many things I want to do and be awesome at!?! I want to do ballroom dancing, and I want to be an original at something!?! Ya know. But it seems everything good that I like has been done 1000 times before!
