I have pets. I love animals. I love to watch ted talks. I like hiking. I like walking with my mother. I like game shows.
I wear skirts. I teach children in a large Kindergarten. I have a brother. I go kayaking. I work for days a week. I have a degree. I watch drama on TV. I like TED talks. I think TED talks can be inspiring. I like comedies like The Office and Parks and Recreation. I like The Walking Dead. I like watching sports like snowboarding, kayaking, and other extreme sports.
I saw a TED talk about what life lessons you can learn from watching kayaking. You would have LOVED it! That sounds interesting. What lessons were covered? Positive thinking, critical thinking, considering how a river flows and how that can translate into what course your life can take. Ups and downs, you know the stuff. You'll have to watch it - I think it's online still. If you were to do a TED talk what would you do it about? I would try to talk about the need for political finance reform. I know that's a pretty dry topic, but it is important. Politicians don't listen to the people because of the pay-for-play corruption in Washington. You're right, dry but very important. It still shocks me how little critical thinking and politics gets covered at school these days. Yeah. But I don't know if I can do an entire Ted talk about it and avoid putting the audience to sleep! Public speaking isn't my strongest trait. Maybe just every now and then do a little dance. Or perhaps add some quotes from the Office or Parks and Rec?  I can try, but I doubt it'll help much. What about you? What Ted Talk would you make? Maybe I could do one about the psychology of game shows, what kind of people go on them, what it means to win, why it feels like you'd do so much better than the contestants when you're the one sat at home. The joys of performance anxiety that comes alongside it. That sounds interesting and fun. Diving into the human mind and trying to understand it has always interested me. I'm not sure I'm any expert on the human mind (not yet anyway) but I could definitely have a go at the game show bit. I'm off out for a walk with my mom soon, hopefully enjoy some of the crisp air before it gets too hot later this year. avng a crack a something new to you is always wroth it. Oh, and I totally understand enjoying the cooler weather. The heat just doesn't agree with me.
