[In order to better understand my self I usually pose questions and known statements to provoke philisophical insight. This, however, was merely a bi-product of that, written when my english teacher asked us to draw up a rough draft for our college essays last year.]
I am complicated. Yet no one knows me better than I do. I can trace my story; and yet I can hardly interpret it. I do not know whether it is internal confidence that stops me, or an unsolved inability. I can’t say I know what I really want, and yet I can tell you what I love. I am built out of ambivalence. I have been asked to boast, and even in that I cannot progress. I have been told that my time is short and I have little time to act, and yet I feel as if I can't act without all the time in the world. My seas are raging, with waves and foam obscuring the horizon.
So what do I do? Will calmer waters come?

...We are not sorcerers and we cannot dictate the water’s flow. Those looking for calmer waters best grab a paddle.

The ending was what really made the whole thing. Sort of tied things together, y'know? Nice.

You're making my head spin!
But, in a good, deep thinking, stop and take a look at your life why don't you sort of way.

eek
With an essay like that, colleges will definitely consider you, haha. But I tpp have a problem with boasting about myself in college applications. That's why I have to ask my dad and mom what accomplishments I've gone through, since I don't feel I've done much at all over the past few years...
