I think sometimes you know what you will do after school and sometimes you dont =). Because you orientate yourself on, what your parents have done.

When I am…

When I am alone,I listened to the melancholic verse of rain.When I am ignored,I enjoyed the music of silence.When I am delighted,I want to see the smiling flowers.When I am excited,I want to be there in the rain.When I am in the arms of Morpheus,I heard the serenade.I felt the coolness of breeze,I enjoyed the warmth of love,I realized the meaning of life,When I am with you.
