SFL 210 outline

Experience one:
It was a good thing I was wearing a long sleeve shirt the first time I tripped over a track hurdle while running. The second time I was not so lucky, and by the fourth and fifth time I had perfected running into hurdles with no improvement in actually getting over them. To my ever embracement I actually raced the hurdles in High School; if you can call what I did racing. I tried hurdles because I came in last in every other track event and it seemed like hurdles were a good excuse to run slowly. With a new respect for people who can run in circles I carried my duffle bag and spiked shoes to practice every day, and I ran. There was never a significant improvement in my times. I never came in any place but last, and I yet I was better for it.

Experience 2
My freshman year my roommate Liv came to our apartment smelling like fry bread and holding a flyer about Native American hoop dance practice on campus that night. We both showed up in sweats, expecting free Little Creaser pizza, a brief dance lesson, followed by a short walk home, and then I personally never thought I would think about it again. When we walked into the room they asked us if we were lost. Liv blended in with her dark hair, but I looked like blue eyed deer in the headlights. Everyone knew everyone, and their brothers, and their aunt, and their second cousin twice removed and I do not even think Liv and I knew why we were there. That night I remember curling up next to the cinderblock wall next to my bed wishing that I could be absorbed in the mortar; I felt like my body was in big-white-blond monster of some sort. In that instant - for only a split second- I had glimpse of what it feels like to look different. I was determined to go to practice the next week, and the next, because I wanted to understand. It was a flyer (4 ¼ inches by 5 ½ inches) with a domino effect so strong I doubt that I would recognize myself if that flyer had never been printed.
