My friend Andrea has a blog that she uses to write just about everyday observations and rants. On one of her last entries she mentioned a creative writing page that offered creative writing prompts to help get your juices flowing. #135 was to create a list of 50 things you will never do. I thought this one was kind of funny so I decided to give it a try. I had a lot of fun thinking them up. I will admit that you can probably argue that some of them could happen. But I found that if allowed for too many “what if” scenarios I would never finish it. So any way, hope you enjoy!
I will never again play Kickball.
I will never go pro at softball
I will never make it on Broadway
I will never be a rock star
I will never win an Oscar
I will never take ecstasy
I will never find the movie My Best Friends Girl funny
I will never like the movie the Matrix
I will never make it to the Olympics based on my own athleticism

I will never live to the age 150, if I even make it to 125 I’ll be like “come on people pull the plug already!”
I will never admit that a relationship between myself and Elijah Wood is absolutely 100% out of the question!

Simply fantastic. However, I have a medieval stretching machine awaiting you to disprove that you can't be over 5'3".
Courtney, I thought your life's ambition was to become a maggot farmer! It's certainly mine. When did you change your mind? ;)
