2008




What a lovely day it has been. No school. No disturbance from anyone. Just me and my John Grisham, A Time To Kill storybook. I am not even half way through the 500 page book but I am already loving the story. It is about law and the courtroom scenario is just enthralling. As I inspire to be a lawyer one day(i think), this book just makes my dream even more realistic. As John Grisham is a lawyer himself, you know that the facts in the book are true. It gives me an inside life on what is feels like to be a lawyer. All I can say is it sounds really cool. But the character in the book, Jake Brigance is a defense attorney. And the last thing I would want to do is defend a criminal. But I guess there is where the most exciting part lies. I can’t wait to finish the storybook. I have to get my hands on more John Grisham books. And as for now, here I come law school even if you are not ready to accept. I will be knocking on your door in about 3 year’s time. I can’t wait! School starts tomorrow. Friends and teachers and homework will be pilling back into my life. I am half excited and have devastated. I am anxious. I am smiling and jumping around like an idiot because I am also nervous.

That was yesterday. The second day of the oh-so much anticipated 2008.
Today is today.
The 3rd of January 2008.
School has started. And the teachers have already started to freak me out about my major, MAJOR exam next year. I hardly understand anything. I feel like everything is moving too fast. I can remember it like yesterday, all the new form 1's(including me) arriving at my alma mater. And the 1A3 students grouping to be a family for the very first time. It took us some time to know each other, but we did it. And now, 3 years later, when we know each other so well, we are getting separated. It is so unfair! Two of my best friends are in different classes from me. SOB!SOB! But, hey, it's life. And that is part of LIFE's JOURNEY! Making new friends and at the same time keeping the old. I wish I could just pause the clock. Or turn back the handles. I don't want to grow up so fast. I want to enjoy life and not go of to college and learn.learn. learn. But I do hear college life is good! I will have to see for myself. Of course, there are certain things I can wait to do like drive a car! That would rock. Getting a job and working, paying for your own bills, I am not sure. Working sounds fun(if your job doesn't take the life out of you) but paying your own bills.....................................
Well, I just want to wish everyone a HAPPY NEW YEAR!


YESTERDAY IS BUT A DREAM, TOMORROW A VISION OF HOPE, LOOK TO THIS DAY FOR IT IS LIFE!
(So what you waitin for punk, Live Life to the Fullest!)
