My fridge

A black small sized fridge placed in my dorm rooms study area is a small space of self expression. My fridge is filed with a weird arrangment of things from protein shakes, juice, fresh fruit, beer, and 151. Yes a very odd arrangment of foods and drinks yet so much is sad about me just by looking at my fridge. It shows my dedication to staying healthy and fit only because I am an Ohio State athlete. Yet, the alcohol also says that I know have to have fun and not just stick to good food, school, and athletics. I drank before I came to college and I still do in college as you know but seeing alcohol in a freshmans fridge might turn you towards oh this kid is wild and is out of controll and probably is going to fail out. Yet, people can still drink and do well in school and athletics you have to get to know a person before you can judge me. Alcohol is a normal part of life yet America views alcohol as a sin or not socially exceptable. I know it can be confusing to see protien shakes and juice and fruit to understand what I do is unbieliveable. I am a gymnast and my body is my life I care about my body the most and yet I drink I have to gymnastics is so frustrating and crazy that I need something to help balance it out. I drink for enjoyment to step out of this dream world I call gymnastics and I have done it for so long it has just consumed my life and every day of it. Alcohol helps me release and forget about the problems I have and forget that I was every a gymnast but I was drink in moderation. The fresh fruit and protein is to help build muscle I am one of the strongest gymnasts in the country and I have to stay on top to one day make the Olympic team a dream of mine since 1996 when I first remember watching the olympics. I remember seeing those gold medals and wanting one myself and I knew I was going to go and I have trained my ass off every since. I am very determened and still know how to have fun a very balanced college student and hopefully a future Olympin.
