PROMPT:
I would rather jump out of a plane. I would want to do this because you can feel the fresh air in your face and under your arms, also because it would be something adventurous and fun todo! I think if I jumped out of an airplane i would be scared at first and might need a few encouraging words, but i would do it because it would be something fun and new todo ecspecially when you have nothing else to do and need that fresh air. I also think if i jumped out of an aiplane and like it, I would do it more and more times, it would bring me out of my comfort zone and make me feel free and brave, i dont know for sure if i would do it for a living but i would do it for fun! Something else daring I would want to do and it would also bring me out of my comfort zone is holding a snake, i never have before but if i did i would be scared but if i actually did it I would feel brave and more confidnet in myself! Also if i could do something else daring it would probably be driving a motorcycle, I think if i tried to drive one it would also give me fresh air and ALOT of confience, I think about alot of daring things i could do when I grow up but these are really the top three because they would give me more confidence and courage to do alot more things!
