All of surrounding are changed.
It feels like only I just am under spell which the witch cursed and made my watch as faster as two times of others.
Far beyond over my faded memories, I stretched out my hand to catch the past how was it like that I have had in same situation.
But, not so long, I found it is very hard to revoke the any colors or smell of the past.
It’s been a so long time like “once upon a time” in the very first sentence of fairy tale.
Then, I realized that it’s time to give up borrowing the memories.
For today, I ask my boss to let me have day-off, of course, I didn’t explain anything at all, since I still have a week to work in this company.
Nobody could imagine this situation, why I throw away this well-paid job and challenge which doesn’t guarantee promising job.
Even the main character in this story who made this decision -I still can’t believe it and really feel this change.
Seeing other young freshmen who are heading to the gym, I felt much more complicated.
‘what am I doing here, now. what is for all this?’ I move my step to the gym which the convocation will be held.
Now, it’s time to check-in.
The student who is charge of list just glance my face one time, and check the list again.
I hope there is no register number of Korea or birthday something like related to reveal my no-longer-young-age.
As soon as find my seat, the convocation is starting.
In fact, I don’t have expectation on the ceremony and think it would be quiet boring, no fun, no meaning.
But once the speech of president started, it is quite strange I can concentrate every single word of a president.
I start deeply understanding his speech and the meaning of learning.
And I found myself realized why I am here and what I am going to do.
In fact, I have to admitted that me in 15years ago couldn’t understand it because I just entered university without any purpose that time.
Now that I have my own goal to achieve through especially GM university.
And this is chosen by me not any other person, circumstance.
I entered this unfamiliar environment to confront my fear of speaking English with exposing myself amid English even though all my classmates are younger than me over a dozen.
Thanks to his speech, I remind myself to concentrate my aim, focus on the core not any other surroundings.
People see what they want to see.
People tends to judge that others would think the same way what I do.
Worry would be the catalyst.
I was worried too much how people think about me what if they could prejudge me by my appearance.
So, I just reflect the worry to myself to protect from any other attack.
But nothing happened, I am safe.
All the worried is made by me when I didn’t focus on my real purpose.
The president speech awakened me to the goal I came here and importance of learning and the reason of study.
I am so proud of myself being this university.
