What's it all about?

Life is confusing sometimes, isn't it? And obviously so is this website. It's called 'I want an adventure', and I do! I do! I do! And so do lots of you. Unfortunately finding adventures isn't as easy as I first thought. Accepting that we all want adventure is a great start I think, and I believe that if we keep the faith adventures will start to happen because of this blog, a few yellow stickers, and most importantly people who claim, 'I want an adventure too! This thought cheers me up even when that life confusion stuff happens.

Perhaps you wanted an adventures as an anti-life-confusion device too? I think this reason is as good as any. Climbing a mountain, rescuing people, solving mysteries, doing something completely out of character, or even silly, any simple challenge can put problems in the background for a while; and if you're lucky even create an environment for change. I really struggled with that line I'll admit. I nearly even wrote 'personal growth' which would have been really wanky. Apologies, this post is getting a bit heavy, I'm nearly done now.

So... the bottom line, I'm feeling a bit low at the moment about life-confusion stuff, and this makes me think more than ever 'I want an adventure!'

Tomorrow I'll be hiding those blank stickers, in Borders, Oxford Street, London. Although I just checked my emails and there's one from someone in the Netherlands... The Netherlands? People in the Netherlands want adventures too!!! Forget life confusion, I'm smiling so much now!

'I live in the Netherlands, but I would love to have an adventure!!'

'Do you have to live in London to be part of IWAA? ' Of course not!

Her great email even said, 'As for the Hi-challenge, I used to do that when I was younger! It's really exciting! Almost everybody said hi back!'

And another nice email too, somebody wrote in to say, 'Heyy I want an adventure!! yesterday I have had a little adventure.. I buyed a chocolate bar at school and put a bit of paper on it; "Just for who wants it" then I've put it on a table in a corridor of our school. Ten minutes later I passed the table and saw two boys saying; ''huh?? aaahh chocolate there is a bit of paper on it''they were laughing. It was very funny.'

Yet another idea for the adventure database!

In fact, due to life-confusion I want an adventure ASAP. I'm going to buy a bar of chocolate in a minute and put a bit of paper on it. 'Just for who wants it' It should be fun! And I'll try the 'Hi' challenge tomorrow as well, as recommended by would-be adventurers in the Netherlands.

You see, life felt confusing, but not any more. All you need is an adventure.
