On Exploring Uncharted Waters

New experiences don't come around every day, or even every month, but on the occasion that they do I try to make the best of them. The prospect of trying something new is exciting to me and often occupies a good part of  my spacing out time where I imagine various scenarios of experiences I would like to have, such as immersing myself in the culture of a different country. If it's true that the more new experiences one has the more interesting they are, then I am aware that I could use a lot more of them. I've had some pretty good first experiences and I've had some pretty bad ones (like my first waitressing job that I grew to hate so quickly), but just as important as the experience itself is whether or not I can see the value in it and, hopefully, learn something from it so that I can understand myself and the world a little better.
