[ FF ] Can you tell your life story in just 200 words ?

Born, defective. 
 
 After a childhood spent watching the space shuttle I realize, “ I want to be an astronaut. “ 
 
 Loving parents reply, “ Of course you can ” ( if it were n't for your heart ) 
 
 “ Astronauts need good grades ”, and I get them. AP, Honors, Dual Enrollment. But it doesn ’ t really matter. My leaky heart aches. 
 
 So what shall I do? I love making art, “ but that ’ s no way to support a family ”. 
 
 I worry about career so much, I can ’ t hold down a hobby. A year of karate. A year spent rowing. A year in the band. A year of competitive mountain biking. Now I am an artist who doesn ’ t draw, a musician who doesn ’ t play, an athlete who doesn ’ t train. 
 
 I'm good with computers, maybe that's what I'll do. 
 
 Uninspired, I change majors. Change majors. Change majors. 
 
 When scholarship money runs out, I graduate. Industrial Engineering is where the wheel stops. 
 
 I need a change. Seattle. The excitement of change fades quickly when I grow disillusioned with the work. Is it the job, or is it me? 
 
 I ’ ve spent my entire life trying to figure out what I should do with it. Now, any answer seems preferable to none. 
 
 This is can ’ t be the conclusion.
