In teen culture, there goes a quote that states you only live once. It’s unarguable that the statement is true, but its context goes beyond its general definition.The motivation it brings along, challenges those who live under it to try and strive beyond the average person. However, life should be enjoyed with moderation and balance. This is why I can be considered someone who is physically active, while still maintaining a lazy and sedentary attitude.
Life is far from sitting at home, waiting for things to change or the clouds to clear up.As BJ Thomas sang, “I’m never gonna stop the rain by complainin’,” it pushes me to step outside, despite the weather. In Vancouver ,I love to hang out with friends. Although I’m not particularly sure that my friends favour the idea, I especially love walking in the cold, sightseeing the city. There’s a certain sense of cosiness, when walking about, tightly bundled in layers of clothing. Even if its not outdoors, I try to make sure I get some physical activity done over the week. This can include going to the UBC aquatic centre to work out or swim. Furthermore, it’s when I’m on vacation that I feel that I’ve hit my physical peak. Especially on my trips to Hawaii ,am I constantly in motion and moving about. You would never catch me dead,sprawled across the sand with a book at hand. The day plan there is simple,beach all day, shop and walk all night. Anywhere I go, I’m always in attempt to get my heart rate going.
Nevertheless,I still like to reside at home sometimes on the occasional lazy Sunday or during the winter holiday in Edmonton .As fun as it is to play outside, it is just as relaxing to lie in bed all day.Sometimes, I wish the day would never end, giving me more time to rest or just be indifferent to the outside world. Being alone at home doing nothing also proves to be important. It gives me time to reflect on prior experiences or to allow me to be self aware.
In my opinion, I find myself more leaned in with the physical. I enjoy going out and doing activities with friends and family. Moreover, I also like to stay at home dazed. I can’t find a particular favourite, but I like the idea that the two attributes can be harmonized.
