I believe that I am most like a bicycle.
You have to keep kicking on a skateboard and it's not such a constant movement with the random pushing off movements. Sailboats make me seasick and the often "wind blowing in my hair" saying doesn't suit me. My hair gets sticky from the salty breeze. Airplane? I get "plane sick" and car sick (yes, I get uncomfortable very easily). I've never been on a traditional chu-chu train before and I've been riding the MRT all year long for over one hour just to get to school so I guess you could say I'm also "sick" of the MRT train. Process of elimination brings me to the conclusion of bicycle.
However, I chose a bicycle as a metaphor for me because I'm very easy going. I can rush full speed or waltz with "grace" through everyday life. I like to be in control of the wheel and I know my measures, strengths and weaknesses well enough to know what not to attempt and what I do best. I can go on through life with no other source of energey other than my own. Of course, when I'm going through difficult times, I may need umbrellas (my friends) to help me through the rain and a safe home (my family and religion) to shelter me when there is a storm outside and I cannot ride anymore. On a bicycle I can go a decent distance, not too fast and not too slow with the large amount of time I have. The speed of a bicycle is just right, whereas other transportations are more extreme with high speed or turtle slowness.
