I was reading my old posts and it seems like it all happened a few hours ago. My last post i guess i was pretty angry :). I was in washington dc all last week. I was soo happy there, it is one of my favorite cities. But this time it was different. I grew alot since my last visit, in fact if i could change my past, i would have liked to go to dc after alaska. in alaska i grew personally-within. in dc i grew outside-my image that i displayed in front of people. I think it would have been an easier way to mature, but life isnt made to be easy i guess. While in dc it was hard for me to adjust to the fast pace. The metro and its speed, the sidewalks and its characters. It was hard for me. The diversity of alaska was also missing. I missed seeing all the diversity.
I remember once i got off the plane my mentor called me. 'Remember your not in alaska anymore, you need more than bug spray.' Yeah dc is ruff, but to a young person its great. dc is for the youth and made by the older. alot of the important people-who are older-naturally-work and run the city. when city creates alot of stress, tention and anticipation that the youth squeeze out of at night. Clubs, cars and monuments.
