Oahpa!

One of my mottos growing up has always been: "It's all part of the experience."
What I mean by that is, is that this life is all about gaining experiences; while we are gaining experiences, we should experience them to the fullest. Don't back out half way, or just watch. Experience it, because it's all part of the "overall" experience; the bigger picture.
Are you going to look back and wish you had participated? Or wish you had worked a little harder? Wish you hadn't backed out?
A new motto that I have recently attached to this one is "It's goo to try new things."
I'm sure if you have been reading my blog that you have noticed that I have most certainly, in this week alone, done many things that were new to me and experiencing things that maybe I wouldn't have done before.
For example, I got a fish! It may have died the next day, but it was a cool experience. Fish live and fish die, It's all about the experience.
The other day I went with my roommate to eat Asian food that I would have ordinarily backed away from. I tried it and it was good (this time.) I tried using the chopsticks and it was all about the experience.
Today, my roommate and I went to a Greek Festival in Salt Lake.
Oahpa!
I don't think I have ever really dug into Greek culture before, except in sixth grade Greek mythology (which is really cool stuff.)
The place was huge; crowded with tones of different people, different foods to try, and lots of dancing.
Oahpa!
It was really fun to try it, it was a good experience.
I look forward to experiencing new things.
