...that's something i've never been good at. especially to my parents. somehow, i can't articulate how passionate i am about something that i feel is the very center of my being. its an odd trend in my life. things that i love to do, i'm mediocre to pretty good, but not phenomenal. examples: soccer, singing, dancing, martial arts, physics. things that i'm phenomenal in, i don't love. examples: swimming, history, political science. there are a few exceptions here and there, but its like...its like when steve has to tell me to use my words, cuz i get so into something, either in a good way or a bad way, that i can't articulate, and i just have to use body language and hand motions and facial expressions...which is probably why i hate talking on the phone.
