Sunset…

The best thing about this time of year is the amount of day light. As I was walking to the library after CLC and Team Read, I passed this hill that allowed me to see the sun going down. And across the sky were different colors; it was a really peaceful sight-with the trees, the setting sun, the meadows, the lake, and the mountains. It really reminds me of my one dream in life…that’s not related to education or academics; I’ve always wanted to travel. Especially from the stress of this year, I just want to leave Seattle and the US as a whole. Sadly, I know I would never leave in reality. Perhaps it’s just because I went to Exeter last summer, and experienced something unique and different. Or maybe because I’m just really excited about Harvard this summer. Whatever it is, I really want to leave Seattle, and just leave everything behind for a year…or two. :] It’s not that I don’t love Seattle, but I feel it’s crowding me in some ways; the air is too dense for me to breathe in. And somehow, I think Sweden or Paris is better…maybe even the mountains in Germany? Hmm…I just want to leave, and see the rest of the world. But yea, that sunset also triggered some fond memories as well…some I thought I’ve forgotten; it’s funny how so many things happen in one life and you only get to remember some part of it. My memories of Exeter are fond; it’s the ideal place for me in many ways.
