A Thousand Memories

Today, I was waiting for the bus at Bellevue College, when I saw a ghost from my past- a distant yet familiar face. Flooding back through the years, were a thousand memories. Days gone bye of mirth and merriment. Days gone by of joy, and the bitter taste one gets looking to the past, choking me up.

I walked up to the familiar face and said "Excuse me, do you have the time?" Who asks that when they have a pocket watch that can tell you time down to the second, and tell you if it's daytime or nighttime? The face said it was nearly Three. I said thank you and walked away. A few minuets later, I saw the face get into a charcoal grey Volkswagen Jetta. I remember the days of the old, square green one ages ago. Time and fortune have been good to her family.

My bus soon came, and I was on my way home. I'm pained by the experience, but a wise groundskeeper said to me "At least you said something." To say ghosts don't exist, is a broad and misleading statement. However, one is lead to believe that no matter how hard you try, pray, or wish, you can never (quite) go home again.

A Rod Stewart song, just for kicks!

A Long Time Does Wonders...

It has been months since I have written on this blog, but a break does good for the soul. In my absence, I have graduated High School, started College today, and I can only think- one must flow with change. Life is ever-changing, and that if you run into a challenge, you face it head on, and jump into the abyss of mystery yelling "Geronimo!"

One cannot imagine the shift you face, until they face it themselves. When you change your  education, changing worlds, changing life! Life is something that is like clay- you sculpt it, mold it, but other things can do it to. Today, I started College, and I think it shall be a good change for me.

In the time leading up to today, I've been working on scholarships, getting ready for this new world, and I think to myself "I don't know what this future holds, but I have to face it!" I just hope, that in the future, I can do proud- the Almighty, and all my supporters. Thank you all so far, and go forth and do great things!
