Blog Assignment #1

In The Hobbit, Bilbo states he is pleased to be "only quite a little fellow in a wide world after all." I personally would not like to be a little fellow in a wide world because I want to see what the world has to offer. I like to experience new things, meet new people and enjoy life. I have danced since I was three years old, I love being on stage and the world is a stage. Dance has afforded me the opportunity to shed my insecurities and become more outgoing. I would rather live my life to the fullest rather than sit at home and drink tea. I am the type of person who takes risks and is not afraid to stand up to anyone or anything. If someone sits around and does nothing, they would be wasting their life. I would get bored to easily. I understand how Bilbo likes to be alone because sometimes I want to be alone in my own little world. The times alone are short lived for me. I would have to disagree with Bilbo when he is pleased to be "only quite a young fellow in a wide world after all."
