I immediatley started off in a hostile environment with my sister always watching my every move. In the long run, I believe that her harshness for me will pay off and I in turn will be successful or something along those lines. I am still waiting for that day. So at least for now, the short run has proven to be exhausting living with her and her tyrannical behavior.

This is the house where I did most of my growing. It served as my home through my entire adolesence. The reason tha I was able to reside in this house is because my father recieved a pay raise in his job and was then able to afford this house.

Baseball was my sport of choice from the early age of four to my eigth grade year in Junior High School. It has since always been my favortie sport, whether or not my skill level was scarce. (it wasn't)

Moving to this school in the short run in my Mom's mind was the right move. Gifted meant better education. However, this school was only a K-6 school so the level of education could not really have been all that different than a public school. And in the long run, it deprived me of many social skills that I would need when I would later attend a public school. (I was a weirdy.)

When I met him I thought of him as nothing more than just a friend in the short run. But now in the long run he has become my brother since I have known him since I was six. Together we have grown and learned and we now both rely on each other.

With this new object, I was able to legally drive anywhere I wanted. Now, this meant I had much more freedom to do the things that I wished. I was growing older however, and that meant more responsibility, which means as my freedom grew, my time grew also, but it grew scarce.

My first job was at the ever glamorous place known as Dominos Pizza. It wasn't that I hated the job, it actually helped me to realize the cost of NOT going to college. It made me realize not going to college would be financially cheaper, but cost me more in the long run with working... At Dominos.

One would think that having more money that was your own would make you more prone to buy large amounts of things. However, since it is money that is my own, money that I earned myself, I actually became more keen to spend my money. This is for the simple reason that MY money is scarce while the money of others is seemingly quite abundant.

Though this trip was financially costly, the incentive for going on this trip in social and emotional experience greatly outweighed the cost. I grew immensely as a person and without going on this trip I would lack many life changing experiences that I now treasure.

Over the summer I began something that I always knew was just around the corner, but never really believed that I would actually get to. I began looking into my college options. And the biggest thing here is incentive. I am constantly weighing the cost of going to one college over another and why the incentive to going to one would be greater than that of another.
