My name is Vincent.
Im 17 years old
Junior in Kennedy High
Im a dancer/badminton player/drummer
And this is just me putting my thoughts and interests out there on the screen...
The deeper I get into something, the more I realize that i’m not alone. There are so many people who can do video, dance, and everything I can do but better. My best friends are some of the most talented people I know and I wish I could be more like them. Being around them really puts me down sometimes and frustrates me. When I was 11, I was fed up with being second rate and suffered with suicidal depression for 3 years. I felt like I didn’t have a chance competing in the world with people like them in it. Thankfully, dance saved my life by becoming an outlet for my emotions. For a while, I thought I was very cool because I was surrounded by people who were worse than me. But lately, I’ve been becoming more and more exposed to the expansive world of dance. Old feelings have been creeping back and tonight I felt worthless. After a whole day of thinking, I have turned my weakness into my source of motivation. I don’t want to keep basing my identity on how many people i’m better than and what I’ve accomplished. Rather, I want to always be looking ahead and towards people I want to be beat. I want to become able to compete on an equal level as the people I admire. Just because I haven’t made it yet doesn’t mean I won’t.
I HAVE THE POWER TO DETERMINE WHERE MY LIFE WILL LEAD.
