In the movie of my life, Jake Baker would play me. I require a certain level of a dynamics brought to the role in order for the actor to properly portray me. This is why I can only trust Jaker with the role. Only he can bring the drama, the action, and the recherche of my lifestyle to the big screen.

For my one week break I am looking forward running. LOTS OF RUNNING. I am going to up my mileage a lot during the break. I'm at 8 miles, but I need to get higher up there. I'll make it. Its just going to take some time, which is nice about having all this free time during the break to focus on that.
I'm also really looking forward to listening to Christmas music with my mom. We have a bunch of old Christmas CDs that we listen to every year. Its awesome. We sing and dance around the house, and just have a really good time. I've already posted my Christmas List on the fridge for my parents and extended family to view on Thanksgiving.

I'm excited. I'll also be getting some good sleep.

If I coud live in one climate all my life, it would most definitely be a tropical climate. I love warm weather. I actually feel like being outside and doing things when the weather is warmer. So why not have good weather year round?

I NEED THE WARM WEATHER.

I would put a video in a time capsule to be opened in the future. I mean, we're in broadcast. We film videos. We edit videos. It would probably a video containing footage of life in this time period. I would also include messages about what I hope the future is like and advice for the future people based on what is going on now, and what mistakes I hope they could avoid.

Now I really want to make like a broadcast or Liberty time capsule.

I personally enjoy standard time more than daylight savings time. It gets dark way too fast during daylight savings time. It makes me really sleepy and not want to run. I don't like that. I want to run. I don't like feeling too cold and lethargic for running.

Daylight savings time makes me blah.

My greatest challenge lately has been finding happiness. I have been very caught up in my own self-critical thoughts that I can't remember what it means to just enjoy something. I need to take a step back, but I feel guilty for doing that. Sometimes, I think I work myself into the ground with everything that I put myself through, and at the end of the day, I still want more. I feel so undeserving of anything good most times.

I need a good run, a bath, a book, and my bed.

I am neither an optimist or a pessimist. I like to think of myself as a realist. It is great to have hope and to go for your dreams, but do not live in fantasy. Think about the actual likelihood of events, consider the repercussions of your actions, and remember that there are other people out there who want exactly what you want, and just as badly.

It isn't about seeing the glass half full or half empty, it is about knowing why the glass is there in the first place.

I completely believe in the idea that aliens could be out there. I mean, it is ridiculous to assume that in a universe that expands beyond our ability to find the end of it, that we would be the only living creatures. Humans have a nasty habit of glorifying their own existence and placing themselves on a pedestal. We are not that smart. There are so many secrets about the universe that we have not figured out and cannot even comprehend.

Chances are, to somebody, we're the aliens

When I'm old and gray, I'll remember running around crazily to get interviews for broadcast. I'll remember arguing tooth and nail with those kids from other debate teams. I'll remember holding a basin for that guy in the ER while he threw up. Yeah. I'm going to remember some very crazy experiences.

The best ones will involve RHTV.
