2 and half years...

It is getting chilly.

Probably the autumn is coming. I love the fall. I love leaves turning red or yellow, and with the clear blue sky highlighting, it's gonna be so beautiful. Well, it's a little bit sad that I no longer can hang around outside.

I went to one of meetings which was held by an organization trying to have an activity associated with global organization, such as Red Cross or Human Habitat. That organization really interested me. As long as I have time, I'd like to participate in it actively. I didn't know that more than 24 million people are slaves in the world, which is more than 100 years ago. It might be a matter of the ratio though.

But anyway, what the president said to us remained in my heart. "College is where you learn." I passed the Japanese test that credits my language requirement, so I can graduate from here within 2 and half years!! That kind of scares me. Just 2 and half years? I would get thown away into the mature, complicated, and chaostic society? I'd get paid, but I'll have a responsibility for my job, and I am also responsible for my life. The food. The living. These are not the only things to be considered. I'll also finish studying!! Does it sound cool?? Yeah, partly, but I cannot study in class. Even if I get inerested in some subject, I have to study it on my own. I'm interested in German modern history, Latin, psychology, that kind of stuff. I mean, if I'm really interested in those, I should study by myself. but...

It's all my responsibility.

I think I rely too much on school. Thanks, my old schools and teachers. I'll teach myself 2 and half years later...


2 and half years.

So I decided to experience as much as I can here, at college, not only the study, but also something important as an independent person, like socializing or knowing better about myself.

It should be so short. The college is where you learn. (Throughout the life, you continue learning, I guess.)



The western sky at the sunset was so beautiful and red. It was like the clouds were holding the redness of the sky as if something were burning out there. I wanted to take a picture of it, but I didn't have a camara, and by then I went back home, it's already got dark. I should have a camera with me all the time!
