PiperXP: I completely understand what you’re saying. Lots of people have told me to find something I’m passionate about, and I can think of two things: snowboarding and being in student council. Even if it may seem like it, I’m really not in student council just to put it on my college apps. It’s an extremely rewarding experience that I wouldn’t ever give up. Snowboarding, on the other hand, is simply my favorite. I have been snowboarding for over half of my life (started when I was 7 or 8 years old), and get a rush that I can’t get through any other means. Thanks for the post!
