Me

I'm Chrissy. 22. Gemini. Born and raised in America. My dream is to experience as much of the world as possible in an effort to help others.
Key Life Desire: Travel, Endless change, Stay Healthy, Enjoy Fitness, Happiness and unconditional love.

The common question I get is: What are you going to do after college?
I don't always say the same thing but my usual answer is, "I don't know, I just want to help people and travel." Although money tends to make this career choice seem like a far fetched illusion, a dream.

I think to myself every day.... What can I offer to this world that someone else hasn't already done? Yes, I know what I want but its NOT that easy. I need money to survive. How I get it depends on the choices I make. I know I'm talented, driven, motivating, loving, hardworking and unique but how in the world do I turn that into something that will actually make an impact in the world? Do I start with a Youtube account or do I just start by telling my story on a blog?

The answer is I don't know what will work. I don't know if me posting my insecurities, fears and thoughts will even get me anywhere. But what I do know is that it makes me feel as though I am not giving up. I'm not settling for a lifestyle that doesn't fit my desires. I want to see what would happen if I put my whole heart into something and be 100% honest...Will this type of thinking, doing and living actually result in something bigger than me?? Can I somehow combine my passions and turn them into something meaningful and creditable to a universal audience? Is my story interesting enough? I am a horrible speller with a high case of ADD....Will people even care enough to read what I write.

I hope so. I want to help everyone that comes across this text and reach out to them. To challenge the American Dream. To expose a new way of life that will help our world become a better place. A movement of individuals wanting more out of life.

Breaking tradition, Challenging youth to be the change we wish to see in the world.

Through my adventures I hope to come to a crossroads that will eventually determine the purpose of my existence. To not know isn't indecisive, undetermined or unsuccessful... It simple means that I want to try the different Baskin Robbin flavors before I pay for it.

This isn't just me telling you my story... This is me opening myself up to the world. Not to "create" my social identity thru a website but to enhance my clarity of direction. Its SO easy to loose sight of what you want in life because we are constantly being taught what to think, feel and do. I need this escape to stay sane. To remind myself that life is what you make of it. Its literally whatever you want to create. Fuck the itinerary, make your own.

I want to inspire you. I want to help you. I want to make the world a better place.

Just by me telling you the raw truth, it can help you form your own opinion. Every decision I've made has been a result of someone who I admire, I look up to for their Strength. Originality and perseverance. I feel fearless when I travel and I want to share that experience with anyone and everyone.

Here I will grow, maybe fall, but always get back up. I will experience life to the fullest everyday. I will meet people who will change my life and I will try my best to return the favor. I will try new things whenever the opportunity meets me and I won't let society determine the way I live my life. I will not conform to the ideals of someone else who has different dreams. I will stay strong, carry on and push myself everyday. Writing will help me find my place not loose it. Hence the importance of language. One of my favorite saying goes:

Maybe I can go around the world and become a motivational speaker that challenges youth to think differently. Challenges them to break away because I think studying abroad should be mandatory.
The saying goes: Knowledge is power but In my opinion, Experience is power.

Knowledge comes after experience which empowers you.

Words create our realities because language is the lenses to which we view our place in the world. I’m lucky to be surrounded by positive reinforcement from my father, step mom, and closest friends. Sticks and stones usually heals with time but word not only hurt us, they control our emotions, form our identities and create our realities. “Think before you speak” isn’t just a piece of good advice, it is the key that drives a meaningful, purposeful and loving life.

  

Every single person has a story, I think its time you share yours.

Xoxo.
