I’ve been absolutely terrified every moment of my life, and I’ve never let it keep me from doing a single thing that I wanted to do.” - Georgia O’Keeffe.

This quotes explains my feeling whenever I do something new. I'm usually scared, nervous, and excited all at once. This I think is a normal feeling for peopl, if not feel free to tell me I'm crazy. Regardless of this anxiousness I feel that if there weren't any risks taken I wouldn't have any stories to share and my life would be epically boring. That is why the motto that goes so well with this specific quote is: The biggest risk in life, Is the one you do not take.

Ever have that moment of which your just scared and don't know what to do? That anything goes wrong your whole life will seem like its completely ruined? Well if you don't take those risks, chances are you will never know if the situation would have benefited you or not. This applies to everything that happens in your life. I know that when I am faced with a life changeing situation I always think of two things. 1) Will what I'm doing kill me. 2) What happens afterward? These two things play a ping pong match in my brain. But I found that if I just don't go for it, I usually chicken out and have miss a perfect opportunity that may have once in a lifetime.

So take a leap of faith and challenge yourself. That is what I'm doing with study abroad and I hope everything will go will and I have the time of my life.
