growing up?

so today i got my first semi-kind-of-taste-more-like-a-slight-lick of growing up...i got asked on a phone interview for an internship :) this may not seem like a big deal to most, but for me this is HUGE...the company i got the interview with is Recycline (http://www.recycline.com/) and they do not have an actual internship program but the new product design department is willing to "explore possibilities" with me...this means i must have done something right for them to take the time to talk to me about a summer internship which is very hard for me to fatham because compared to almost everyone else in my life i have done zilch...but i guess its all relative aint it.

come to think of it i have met some absolutely inspiring people in my life...not necessarily out-right inspiring people...more often people who are greatly underestimated and/or underappreciated but truly are extraordinary in certain ways...on such individual is featured here-http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hBp-dZmG8zQ...this young sir is silly and outrageous but one of the most brilliant individuals i have ever held a conversation with, but people misinterpret his outrageousness as natural craziness when in fact his humor and actions are meticulous planned to produce the hilarity that one sees before them...people like him really make me appreciate individuality and the many different approaches there are in life...there is never just one way to do anything which makes me eager to be 60 and exusably grumpy and to look back at how i approached my life...

so as much as the process and unforseeable journey of growing up can be unnerving, the retrospect one acquires is worth every risk and every mistake and ever success...

quito in 8 days baby...let the growing up commense.
