My name is Tracey. I am a tenth grader. I enjoy being alone and feeling peaceful. I believe in building of inner strength on loneness and independence. I like to travel and that is one thing I wish I had done more often. I plan on backpacking Europe solo during Grade 11 summer, starting from Italy and ending at Sweden (as soon as my parents compromise, which I'm still working on.) I love bonfires. The biggest one I have ever seen was in Kenya where I went this summer. It was taller than me. I love them not for the activities, the people, or the chatters and singing and noise, but simply for the fire, the purest and the most beautiful form of "life", for the warmth it provides on the outside as well as my inside, and for its random yet graceful and mesmerizing dance moves.
If fire doesn't count as a form of natural "living", I would just like to point out I prefer spending time in the mountains over spending time by the sea. I worship the beauty of nature, in organisms that all seem so identical but yet so magnificently different. And that "beauty" and that... "incredibility", is provided in almost all mountains in BC. Plus, I dislike beaches. I dislike swimming. I dislike tanning. But I do like summers. I do like the sun. I also find deserts fascinating. There's this movie I have seen about an Australian girl in the Australian deserts, called "Tracks". It has given me courage and valour. Though it's not my favourite nor is it even close to being my favourite, I genuinely appreciate it because I became encouraged and bold in things I was not sure about, like my trip to Kenya. If merely a movie can transform me, I admit I believe in the power of influence, thus the power to change. My power to change. I guess this is what leadership is all about, heh? :)
Excuse the way my mind jumps from ideas to ideas.
