Dreams do come true #1

It was the year 2000, if I remember it correctly..
I started to change my 'ambition' to a pianist....
I was still a kid (and I think I still am)....
I wanted to be able to play the piano...
I pictured myself playing the piano...
I thought "That would be so nice"

Year 2004, my third year of junior high...
The last several months....
I knew and realized that the ambition to be a pianist was not quite realistic...
But I still dreamt of being able to play a piano piece...
Even one would suffice...

Year 2005-2007, my senior high school years...
Days were hectic, full of activities...
I admit, I almost, just almost forgot that I had this little dream of being able to play the piano...
But I guess it stayed too long in my heart and mind in the past several years...
I couldn't forget...Yet I couldn't make it come true....
At one point, I told myself "Dreams don't come true...They are just dreams after all"

Year 2009, April...
The year in which my life took a huge turn...
The year in which I made a huge decision....
The year in which I experienced a lot of which I never thought I would...
There's a new music course in town....
My sister and I wanted to enroll, so we asked for permission...
My heart said "Finally" while my mind whispered "Don't be too sure"
We went there and asked for information...

Year 2010, October....
I am now having trouble arranging my time...
I have college lessons, English and Mandarin lessons....
I need to help out at my parents' course...
I have assignments waiting for me to take a good look at them....
And I have to arrange my time to practice my piano pieces everyday...
Yes, I enrolled...And I have been learning for more than a year...
Now, my heart says "You made it" while my mind shouted "Remember to practice everyday!"

The first step is always what's needed...
If you want to go to the other side of the road, you'll have to take the first step to cross the road..
I went to the course and enrolled, that was my first step..
Now, I'm just trying my best to finish this race...

Years ago, I was dreaming...
Now, I am fulfilling my dream...
As I am now watching and experiencing my dream coming true....
GO FULFILL YOURS!

Last Week Of October 2010

I'm now entering my 4th semester of my university life...
It's arriving faster than I have expected...
Or is it because of the time that goes by so quickly?

I haven't made any improvements concerning my stories..
I have a lot of ideas...
But.....

I wonder why there's always a 'but'...
Still, I make this silent oath to myself...
That I will finish a story..a full story, within half a year..
I'll have to work hard, I know...

I'm learning Japanese now...
Finally....
I guess dreams do come true....
Well, about dreams coming true..
That's another story..

But, people, believe this!
Dreams do come true, with a condition...
You yourself must do something...
Make a start...
If not, a dream is still a dream.....

Bye for now~
