Tomorrow

Like some other diarists out there, I have so many things in my mind ready to be expressed out but every time I try to jot it down, each word just seem to dash by.


Just like now.....I kept pressing the back space button on my keyboard when a sentence or two has already been written. I don't know what has gone into me.

In a few more days, college starts. I am both nervous and excited at the same. I imagine myself standing in the midst of nowhere, looking in the faces of the strangers that would soon be my classmates, clutching my notebook tight against my chest. I imagine myself, if not the smart-looking girl I am in the outside, the laughing-stock, weird student wearing old-fashioned outfits I would be.


No. I wish not.


My church friends keep on encouraging me that I would make a bright student of myself someday. Who knows? Maybe it's true or maybe it's not.

Tomorrow would be my day. Because it is my birthday. My 17th birthday.


It's hard to envision myself turning 17 that fast. Fast! Yesterday, I was a little child running and chasing other children and then I would bloom to be a young lady the next day.


Isn't it strange how birthdays can change everything? It could change the way you look on yourself. It could change the way people treat you. It could bring some changes to your physical appearance. In just a turn of a day, you feel different. Isn't that strange?


Well, tomorrow is my birthday and I don't even feel a bit excited about it.


Wait when the sun shines through your sorrow and think that God holds your tomorrow.
