Wow, I haven’t blog for a while!

It’s been 3 months since my last blog huh? This reflects my personality – I have a hard time following up what I started :)

Well, school was busy for me with all the projects in my Virtual Enterprise class. Here were what I accomplished in the past few months. I got admitted to UCDavis, got an Internship for the summer, graduated from high school (yay!), and won some computer science contest and awards.

The graduation was 3 hours long and it wasn’t fun. However, I met my English teacher whom I liked every much for his philosophies and time spent in class to tell us to live right. He said, “Come give me a hug, now you go do big thing!” It was actually a touching line for me. Yeah, it’s true, graduation means I am growing up (ready to be an adult soon?) and living my own life. Let’s see how big I am 10 years from now haha.

It is exciting to graduate but at the same time sad since I won’t be hangout with my favorite friends anymore. Each person is now walking on a different path. I wonder if I or they would remember those fun time we had together 10 years from now. Of course, I’ll keep in contact with them but things won’t be the same anymore. I knew it because I am still keeping my contacts with friends in Viet Nam (I came to  US five years ago) however, only one is still replying my emails. The others probably don’t have me in their life anymore :p

I have driving license and a car now. This is when I realize that I am growing up and I have more responsibilities to deal with as well as more freedom. Once I am 18 years old, I can just walk out of my school to do my business and the school has no right to do anything compare to when I am younger. Also, with the ability to transport, I don’t have to rely on anybody now. If I want to buy my mom a birthday gift, I drive to a store and buy one. It also means that I cannot make any excuses if I didn’t buy her a gift ha-ha.
