I think I’m slowly coming to the realization that I am an adrenaline junkie. The last few weeks of my life has been filled with doing 110+mph sprints down 280, jetskiing on the Atlantic, and most recently, going skydiving with a couple of good friends. And, frankly, the last few weeks of my life has been the happiest I’ve been in quite some time.
I’ve always seen the term being tossed around, but I never really paid attention to it. I pictured hippies doing drugs, or something else very generic and non-descript. But, never did I even think to associate the term with myself.
But here I am, getting very close to making some huge life changing decisions, and taking risks that most of my friends find to be absolutely insane; yet, I’ve got nothing but a huge smile on my face.
To research this subject more, I decided to wikipedia it:
Any number of extreme sports or dangerous activities could be associated with the pnenomenon, such as streetluge, skateboarding or skydiving. Less physical pursuits would include gambing, stock market trading, or even shoplifting.
Stock market trading they say, hmmm… interesting.
I think it’s becoming clear that this is probably one of the best terms that describe me. After all, why else would someone quit a perfectly good internship and help do a startup called MyPIMP? Or as one of my good friends would put it: “Why would you jump out of a perfectly good airplane?”
All things considered, here’s the real question: what is going to give me my next fix?
