Do you push the elevator button more than once? Do you really believe it makes the elevator faster?
I have been known to be a button masher. Do I really think it'll make the car come faster? Not in the slightest. However, I don't like feeling like I am not doing something, so I feel like at least I'm attempting to make it come faster.

My next two 50 questions
- Which is worse, failing or never trying?
I think that ultimately it is much worse to never have tried in the first place. If you try and fail at least you can go to sleep at night knowing that you gave it everything you had. If you never even try, there's always that little voice that wonders what it would have been like had you succeeded. It's better, in my opinion, to succumb to the failure of reality than to be forever tortured by the promise of the potential success.
- If life is so short, why do we do so many things we don’t like and like so many things we don’t do?
That is simple. People focus on the expectations placed upon them. It's expected that you will go to school, go to college, get a job, get married, have kids, grow old, retire and die. LOL. People are afraid of being the odd sheep in the flock and will conform, even if its not really what they want to do. Therefore, people suffer through the reality of every day because in their mind, its less painful than the unknown of being themselves.

Septembers Deep Question
If you could offer a newborn child only one piece of advice, what would it be?
This answer is very simple.
Be yourself.
Do things that make you happy without regard of looking silly or stupid. Admit that you don't know everything without fear of embarrassment. Be comfortable in your skin, even if that means you lose a friend in the process. If someone judges you for being different, you don't need them. As long as you aren't breaking laws, physically hurting people or being offensive---be yourself. Take chances, make change and enjoy every opportunity presented to you.

Taste of the Arts
Ok, so I'm a little behind on my posting here. Matt and I went to Taste of the Arts last weekend and had a pretty good time. After having been at the Taste of Chicago, the taste of fort wayne was mildly disappointing. It was good, but knowing how many great restaurants we have here in town---it makes me sad that there were only a fraction of all of them represented.
We also walked over to the old fort wayne to visit the re-enactment. Matt had never been to a re-enactment and seemed to be mildly entertained. It makes me want to take him to someplace like Williamsburg or Conner Prarie.

Tangelo!
One new food down, 9 to go.
Review: It was pretty good. I don't know if I could eat them all of the time, but they are pretty good.
