As a returning 3rd year student who will be starting my final year at the University, I still haven't the slightest clue regarding the formalities before the new academic year begins. If the students in our course chat aren't overbearing busy-bodies, I probably wouldn't have known that returning students are required to complete some kind of online registration form.
Will my uneventful University life come to an end, without ups but only downs? Think of the grass that withers under the scorching sun during a prolonged draught, they've never even had the chance to tremble in the passing breeze-- so goes my days at university.
I'm not complaining about the unchanging lack of excitement in my life. Most sentient persons in their 20s would like to live their life by the motto "young, wild, and free" but I have to say that I prefer to live only freely, where I could do nothing, enjoy doing nothing, and thus experience all the freedom that only doing nothing can bring. Sipping tea from a teacup bought at a used-goods store and admiring the same old view that stretches itself outside my balcony door, I think the kind of peacefulness found in a still painting is under appreciated.
I suppose it is true that I'll have enough time to enjoy the life of a retiree once I actually retire. Should I go out and break a bone or two? I've never actually broken anything, except for tableware. Youth is all about breaking things, isn't it?
The new semester, I wonder if anything will change?
