Being so-so is a nice way of saying you suck

The idea behind her essay is to show people to enjoy things without putting to much emphasis on being the best, or worrying about it. I can say I partially agree with this... It's to each his or her own. I know that I try to be the best in everything I do, if I can't do it that way after a few tries then I move on to the next thing. It's the way I was brought up. My father and uncle always strive for number one. I remember being a kid and playing against them,  I was always in store for a royal ass-whipping, I appreciated it.  Who wants to suck at something. I know I don't.. I don't have fun losing, thats just it, thats just me. I can say one thing the writer is good at. She did write a good essay, which she failed to mention.. I'm not the best at everything, but I'm one of the best at the things I like to do.  A little competition never hurt anyone.  Like the karate kid song said. Your the best around nothings gonna ever keep ya down.
