What I Want

What I Want:

     To be honest, I haven't put too much thought into what I really want. I guess I want to be able to do something with my life that I really enjoy. One thing that I could see myself doing right now is being a general manager of a sports team. I've recently come to terms with myself that I'm not the next Messi or Ronaldo, as much as I wish I was. That being said, a general manager isn't asked to go and score a winning goal, but make sure the right players are taking that shot. I don;t know what exactly I would give to get there. I guess I would give up a lot of time learning the details through some sort of business/law school.

     One character that has wanted something really badly is Tambu. Tambu would've given up everything for a quality education, and she did once offered the opportunity. Now she has the ability to do anything she wants. Another character we've read about as a class was Ralph. All he wanted was to safely get off of the island. He organized all of the boys into a working community in order to stay alive. Even though most people died along the way, Ralph was able to get off of the island and go back to England.

  1. That sounds like a really cool wish! It just sounds like an awesome job. Tambu and Ralph did want to do those things, and, although I think Tambu did more to get an education, they both wanted something. Great post!
