what I was like as a kid
Tell me what's been on yourNow tht I think about it, I don't think I ever really knew myself as a kid either. Sure I had friends and buddies and aquaintances, but I never did anything outside of the classroom. I remember being in my head all the time, too. I rarely said anything to other people. Always stuck my nose in books or my Gameboy. Even at that Islandwood trip, when one of my roommates asked me, "Why don't you talk that much?" I replied, "I don't have anything to say." I remember distinctly not having a personality like that. But it neither sucked or was I content with it because I was too young to understand social dynamics and interactions with people. Maybe I really did have autism of some kind?
I feel like, if I had kniwn about college when I was a kid, I would have probably liked to apply to skip middle and high school. Like Daria.
Maybe the reasn why school exists is to just put you with kids your age and to teach you how to be social.Journal 3-8-21

This YouTube video I watched a while back explained this insight for finding one's passion in their later years: it's simple, what did you enjoy doing as a kid?
There's no need to "go out there and find your passion" when it's already within you.
If you liked making videos as a kid, could you be a filmmaker

ive always liked the idea of self sufficiency. I would watch dual survival and man vs wild so much. I wish I were like them. independent.
I've always liked reading comics and going to the library. from a young age mom took us to the NewHolly library to get free newspaper, where I read the comics each week. I loved Garfield, big nate, Calvin and hobbies. mind...
