These are the days worth living on 19 January 2009
, 1:29 AMI had some time to think over things like bad habits, wrong decisions and the consequences that came with all those actions.
Failing isn't so bad - afterall I'll have an opportunity to learn from my mistakes.
You know when I was small and in primary school (!grandfather story) I used to think that the fire alarm system was pretty stupid.
There were drills and more drills but in not any of my days in school were instances of fire spreading in the school's compound! (I know that's a blessing but meh :/)
Usually, when the fire-bell sounds the class would hurry down to the field and assemble with the rest of the school only to have to listen to the principal speak.
I thought, "what if the fire started out on the field?"
The weather would be scorching hot when we're assembling in the field anyway, so if the field were to be on fire, where the heck would we assemble?
But that's all in the past.
Recently, I could only think about the field at CJC.
The school I really want to get into!
I wouldn't mind being out in the burning compound - listening to principal's long and dull speeches.
I wouldn't even mind starting a fire and have everybody caught up in this once-in-a-lifetime experience! (haha no actually not)
Soon reality checks in and I snap out of these thoughts.
So what if I don't get into CJC? I'll be in SRJC - although it belongs to the bottom of the spectrum, I'll still get one more shot to prove everybody else wrong.
That'll be scoring straight As in A-levels!
An opportunity is as good as it gets :) and I'll cherish it with all my soul!
Yup so everyday it's just here and there: Uncertainty and unassurance.
But that's all part and parcel of life.
Oh, I'm a big boy now!
Baba Yetu Yetu Uliyeeeeeeee!
