As I look back at my past it reminds me of a watercolor by Monet: when one steps back and examines it as a whole it is quite lovely and organized, but up close the details are blurry and imperfect. Childhood was that wonderfully chaotic time where Oji-sensei guided a group of rambunctious little boys, turning them from awkward, beach-loving hellions into tennis players who enjoyed the complexities of the game and wanted to achieve all they could. Unfortunately our junior high years did not result in Nationals championships but I think the love of the game made us better people.
High school was a little different and yet another colour was added to the vast canvas of my life. Tennis still held an important place in my life (two years at Nationals is something for anyone to be proud of) but I also began to explore an interest I never before knew I had. I've always been someone who has doodled on the edge of my notebook or made intricate designs in the sand when everyone else was making the typical sandcastle. With Oji's encouragement I began taking art classes. It was as if I'd been cast adrift and finally found my way home. I felt like a part of me was no longer quite so empty, my emotions conveyed by a brushstroke on a canvas or a figure in clay. Father was disappointed at first, wanting me to pursue a career in law or business but Oji and Mother convinced him to let me do what made me feel alive....and after he saw some of my work he agreed. I may never make much money but I know I will be content. Each step of the way adds more color and depth to my canvas, the painting beautiful and chaotic and....me.
