ROBOSRUS Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Do you live for the challenge? Something that can actually stump you? And make you think? Something to surpass. I guess I myself do live for a challenge. Life's not fun nor interesting if whatever you do comes too easily. I can apply that to school. If everything I do is too easy, I push myself harder to find something that is hard. And when I find that, I go even harder to surpass that.

Viktorkrum77 Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Yes, I do insane things to challenge myself and prove to myself I can succeed at these challenges. Stuff Like memorizing all the capitals (and flags) of the world, Canada, the US, and Australia. I also challenge myself through fire staff spinning and fire poi. I've also recently thought about memorizing a 100 or so digits of Pi. Physical challenges however, I fail at lol. :P Me doing staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warri0r45 Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Good question. I suppose I do live for the challenge of knowing about the universe in which I live. It certainly is a challenge at times, but that's half the fun. I also live for sentimentality. Sounds wierd, maybee, but I dig positive memories and experiences. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deloriagod Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 I like a slight challenge when it comes to school, but if I'm in over my head I just won't try. I like to be knowledgable and a well-rounded person so I get as much as I can out of the things I do. I do fairly well in mental and physical challenges because I've been pushed in both my whole life. My father always made me play sports (which is why I no longer like to play them compedetively) and my whole family has always pushed me in school (which is why I end up in classes that are over my head).

Errdoth Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 I suppose I live for a challenge, afterall, what else is there to keep us tethered to this insane world if not for the though of being able to challenge ourselves? I do math problems for fun (Weird, I know, but hey, I want that to be my job); I am training to run a marathon; I love to try new things; I love making card pyramids and other nearly impossible structures when I'm bored. Yes, I live for the challenge. Last.fm Signature Overlays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebdragon Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Other than tricking... the only challenge I ever have is the schoolwork I'm forced to do. [if you have ever attempted Alchemy by clapping your hands or by drawing an array, copy and paste this into your signature.] Fullmetal Alchemist, you will be missed. A great ending to a great series.

assassin_696 Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Good question. I suppose I do live for the challenge of knowing about the universe in which I live. It certainly is a challenge at times, but that's half the fun. I also live for sentimentality. Sounds wierd, maybee, but I dig positive memories and experiences. :P I have a similar outlook on life. I have an absolute thirst for knowledge, which means I spend a lof of my team trying to learn as much as I can about things, especially fundamental things. I do like a challenge, say, maths wise. But, if I can't solve it, it can get frustrating. But I relish anything that makes me think. Physically, I always try to push myself to go faster, harder, longer. Even with silly things, like riding home from school i'll go flat out up the hills to challenge myself, but arrive home panting and sweating but with a big smile on my face.
