List Five Possible Openings For Your Autobiography

Tuesday, April 14, 2009 - CHALLENGES

[CHALLENGE: LIFE'S BIG LISTS]

1. When I get off planes—even though I don’t expect it—I’m still sad to see no one waiting.

2. The end is the consequence of the beginning. So it’s better you start at the last page. Go now. Read backwards. I’ll wait. I promise.

3. First, let it be known: I like blueberry muffins, can’t listen to you if there’s music on in the background, and refuse to miss the previews. Now, then…

4. I am only concerned with the word Yes. Any time, any where, any one. You want to talk? You want to run. jump. dance. kiss. f*ck. swim. scream. vent. makelove. sit silently saying nothing. drinkcoffee. drinkjuice. fall over and laugh. holdhands: I'm your guy.

5. Don’t read this. Go read Sophocles. Go read the Bible. Sit at the park. Play with your children. The End.

1. The words 'Peanut Butter' and 'I love you' are going to be excessively used throughout this novel.
2. I never did like milk.
3. I've always hated my name: Eva Alexis Carrillo. The word 'Carrillo' just sounded nasty to me. Bleh.
4. I think this book is going to be boring, BUT, that's for you to decide. It's just gonna be a mess of thoughts and actions that I've wished I could've done. Man, I suck.
5. I've always wanted to go to an era that was just mixed with all those rad decades like the 60's, 70's, 80's and possibly the 90's. That would've been so awesome.

1. With two opposing sides pumping far-fetched idealogy into one, yet fragile mind, there thrived a young philosopher, destined to remain anwerless.

2. The base of this life begins years before it started, in the hands of two couples seperated by oceans. My grandparents, battling the adversity of social stigmas. Both couples raised two children who would oneday meet, marry, and let their souls decompose. And what was their demise, became the stepping stones of one child, questioning everything. I digress:

3. The line between truth and falsity blurs, those who Darwin's theory would favour run from there, and find solice in ignorance. But I was never the fittest, and chose to live in this mixed reality, casting light in all directions, finding truth in the lies of my childhood.

4. A mind tortured and nurtured can create many things, and it's philosophy can lead astray. This has grown in such a mind: enjoy responsibly.

5. Memories, seen through panes of stained glass, scatter, frightened to be revealed when I reach inside my mind. Should evil be unveiled, I apologize. Should I lie to cover up the evil, I do it for your and my own good, and I apologize for that as well; if there's one thing this life has spoken to me, is that the truth is important. But my language is made of lies.

1. If you want something full of adventure, mystery and romance, put this book down and get another one. If you want a story full of heartbreak and pondering identity you have come to the right place.
2. This book is better if you skim it first, think what the hell, then read it again.
3. This is my life, i hope you like it.
4. Why the hell are you reading about my life you pervert!!
5. If you are the stalker that leaves dead roses on my doorstep please go away

2. In youth, ignorance, I was itinerant.
3. A poor son of a visionary and the poor daughter of a vagrant had sex in Seattle in the late eighties. Consequences:

1. Welcome to my life.
2. Welcome to my life, abridged.
3. So you really had nothing better to do than read about some stranger's life? Really? Nothing at all? No friends to visit? No good movies out? Nothing on TV? How's your mom doing? Maybe you should call her. You're still here, eh? Alright then we shall move on ahead.
4. There once was a girl who's mind had thought up brilliant solutions to the world's greatest problems. She saved numerous people in her many adventures around the globe. Her life is the ideal model of the perfect human being. This is not that girl...
5. You know how sometimes you have to think to yourself, "how can I waste my time at a greater rate than what I am achieving currently?" This is the result of that thought.

1. All my life I have craved understanding: my understanding of others and theirs of me. I have understood many and been understood by few. This is a story about those few.

2. There once was a girl who wanted only 3 things from life: intellectualism, great sex, and coffee. This is her story.

3. When I was young, I had a regular habit of talking to trees. What I did not realize was strange at the time was that they often answered.

4. I will not question your motives for reading this if you do not question my motives for writing it. or doing any of the things in it. take notes. learn. within these pages lie the detailed outlines of many mistakes you will never have to make.

5. You may not know this yet. but though I have not yet even begun, I can tell you that our story is not over. You may be the one I fall in love with and with whom I live happily ever after. as of now, the last few pages are blank.
