I haven't really to took the time to write lately. Like my wheelchair, my life has been in high speed mode. I've been finishing up my junior year. I been taking trips with my family to places like Colorado. Needlessly to say, the time I'm not doing homework or traveling is the time I'm getting some R&R. Sometimes I wish I could slow down or stop time. I mean I know I'm not only the one. For me, having control of time would be more about having the time to really taking things into to perceptive rather than trying to savor every second of youth though. I intend to have a one track mind. Constantly trying to predict what would be the chapter of my life while I haven't finished the current one. It is like I haven't succeed enough to think Wow, I achieved this much already. or There is still time to do this and that." Maybe it's because I'm afraid of disappointing myself. Nobody is expecting more from me than myself. I mean I get frustrated when I begin to underestimate my own ability. Will I ever be able to get do this or that? I'm beginning to realize everything happens in time though. I will get there one day. Just gunna sit back and enjoy the ride. Appreciate everything I have done and have so far.
Oh yea, there is one thing I forgot to mentioned. I recently won the title for Miss Louisiana of Miss Wheelchair USA. I entered and now I'm going to the USA pageant in July. Crazy, right?? My platform that I'm going to presented is to reach out to young girls and women with disabilities and encourage improved self-esteem and determination that would help them to reach their goals. I want to inspire belief that their disability should never stop them from achieving academically and socially.
Ok, maybe I don't give myself enough credit. But hey, I rather be overly self-driven than be easily content :)
