Generation Why

Reading between the lines

Finding meaning in just about everything

By SARA ANNE BENDLER

Special to the Record-Eagle

I am mystified by psychology. I love music in every way. I can listen to one song endlessly, and still think about what it means.

I feel like everything has depth to it, even if it doesn't. When I read what someone writes, or hear what someone says, I think about how they feel almost always.

Writing, drawing, painting and taking pictures is my way out. IT is my therapy. I learn from it, and I get better at what I do as time progresses.

Besides that, it's a fun thing to do to spice up life. I feel all my emotions intensely, and sadly, I am easily hurt. On the other hand, it is pretty hard to make me mad.

Eighty percent of the time, I'll just get sad. I try my hardest not to take everything to heart.

I love and treasure my friends and my family. I like to be crazy and funny, and I am not always serious, as though it may seem. I love to joke around and just have a good time. I love my dog, and I can tell what she is thinking just by looking at her. I know she has thoughts, because she has facial expressions, and reactions, just like I do.

I like to watch movies, game shows, music videos, reality TV and cartoons. I think Legos are awesome, and super entertaining. I'm not kidding. Give me some of those and I'm like a chimpanzee for, like, an hour. I love to see people smile. Correction. I love to make people smile.

I'm an awesome cook. I adore Photoshop and photography. I have a love-hate relationship with love. It's actually pretty intense. I love good conversation. I love to meet new people, especially if they have a great personality and some style. I love style. I love video games, and I still play N64. I like to go to concerts. And I enjoy getting lost when I'm with someone worthwhile.

I'm the kind of person who can walk around stores for hours and just look at things, especially at night. I love to go on walks with my friends. And I love to just go out with a couple friends and drive around with no destination. I rarely ever give up on myself, or anyone else, because I believe that there's always more to life.
