I am a dream killer. I know this about
myself. Well, dream killer may be too strong of a term. Hope slayer.
Wish smasher. Goal crusher. Those sound nicer. I saw this story a
little bit ago of this 11 year old kid named Tyler Armstrong that
plans on climbing Mt. Everest. I heard this and thought his parents
hated him. Why would you let your kid do some shit like this?
Yeah, he's set some other records in
the past (climbed Mount Whitney in a day when he was 8, he was the
second youngest person to make it to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro in
Tanzania at 9, he was the youngest to do Mount Aconcagua in
Argentina, and in August Mount Elbrus in Russia). But its fucking Mt.
Everest. This isn't something that will be done over the weekend. He
will have to be there for over a month in conditions made to kill
humans. “I'm really excited that I can actually go to Mount
Everest, experience the mountain and get to the summit” Yeah. And I
was excited about sex until I had it.
