<div class="MsoNormal">
It all began with a challenge to drink three shots of
tequila. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It’s unlike me to deny a challenge, especially one like
this; this challenge alone will prove me. Watch me as I break through the
barriers of gender roles and being a goody-two-shoes. Girls are lightweights?
Ha. And who would’ve imagined me ever taking shots? I told you all that I'd show you!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Suddenly all the gender roles restraining me will collapse.
Suddenly my facebook will be filled with instagrammed piles of proof of this
night. I don’t care about rules!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I’m a person defined by the challenges that I take. I swore I'd prove everyone wrong <i>so watch me.</i><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Regardless of how that turned out, shots or not, the general
response was, “That’s cool.” And we moved on. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This isn’t a post to condone drinking. But, it’s true that
sometimes you have to take a shot at things. Little things like challenges where standing on your
own, you define yourself by your thoughts and beliefs. Maybe that makes me prove people right in some ways, or wrong (seriously, goody-two-shoes?) but if that's how I really am, it doesn't make a bit of difference.</div>
