Why Can’t I?

It’s 12:48 in the morning and I’m sitting on my computer talking to a friend. Every now and then, a noise and an orange color on the taskbar. As I sit here, talking to a friend I’m reading someone’s poetry. How good they write! Why can’t I write like them? Why can’t I express my feelings and pain even though we feel the same amount of it? Why does he get to write brilliantly and I get to wonder if my sentences make sense or not? I think it brings out the eternal question of why everyone can’t be happy? Why can’t I be happy? Why do I need to feel jealous? I’m above this!

12:52 I’m thinking should I erase this post? What will people say? What will my friends think? I’m thinking why should I care? If they are my friends, they should know the real me. But what if they leave?

12:53 Another sound and a flash of orange color. I wonder why I’m awake? I should sleep. Maybe it’s the drowsiness talking.

Why I Joined The Wrestling Team

People always ask me why I joined the wrestling team. Just today I went to someone’s house and they asked the same question. Why wrestling? Why not any other sport? She went on to saying that out of all the families she knew, I was the only one who had joined wrestling. I want to ask a question first, why is wrestling considered a peculiar sport? Would I have got the same reaction if by chance I had joined the Soccer team? People judge, why do they have to?

Getting back to the topic, here are the reasons I joined the wrestling team.

1) I needed a sport for colleges. Soccer and basketball were just too cliche. I wanted something different, something out of the blue. I wanted people to respect me for something else than just academics. I wanted a sense of self pride for being in a sport. I wanted to utilize my body and mind to something other than academics, something which I get credit for and also makes me feel happier.

2) As much as I hate to say it, sport players are much more “popular” than guys who are smart (luckily I’m both). I thought it’d be different to just chill out with my sport buddies, get to know the chicas if you know what I mean. But honestly, they’re useless. I mean I just can’t see myself justifying the fact that they cut classes all day and sit in the sports office while at the same time whining about how their classes are “too tough”. People ask me how I score so well, I say pay attention in class, but I guess they can’t do that since they’re not in class.
