Between the twilight and the dawn. FREEWRITING

There is nothing more stressful that our lives at this very moment. We are no longer the happy, unconscious young-adults we used to be about four months ago. Harsh reality. We have to study. 

However, I’m determined to turn down that great feeling —Irony— of being trapped in a four-wall box for the rest of my Christmas Holidays. You may ask: If you do not do that and you do not get enough study you will fail the tests! Thank you, I did not thought about that until now.

No, the thing is that for sure I’m going to study a lot this Christmas, not only because of failing but also because I take the studies as a moral principle and I think it’s my job to get good grades and eventually have my degree. And that is what I am up for. But also I think that “We'll never be as young as we are tonight.” —I read this somewhere on the internet and I thought it was worth thinking about it a little. We have to enjoy our life right now, before it is too late. 

Having said that, I’m taking my handbag, my coat and a fluffy scarf and I’ll just wander around the city with my friends for a couple of hours. If this doesn’t make us feel alive and “infinite” again, I don’t now what can.

—Irene.
