Blog 4
During the summer I read a book by Mitch Albom, "Tuesdays with Morrie". It was about a student who had promised an old proffesor, Morrie, that He will continously come and visit his favorite proffesor. Through the years, the student gradually forgot about Morrie only to coincidentally watch a news report that had involved Morrie. As he watch Morrie he learned that Morrie was ill and very close to his death. He then remembered that he had promised Morrie that he will never forget him. The student wanted to honor his word and dearched for Morrie.
After learning of Morrie's adress, the student quickly bought some plane tickets to visit. When the student arrived, Morrie was very welcoming. He invited the student to come in and learn his final lesson, LIFE. He tells the student of how his approaching death taught him so much. He explains how he appreciated life so much more now that he is ill.
And then as I write this blog it came to me. I do not want any regrets in my life. I feel that education is a privelege to me and I should seize this great oppotunity. I have not been performing to my full potential and I am willing to correct that. I no longer want to be that mediocre student. I want to be more! I think of all my cousins in my native country andI imagine how much they would appreciate an oppurtunity like this. And I apologize for the unfinished narrative but I want to be HEARD, but not identified. This is why I had to insert this into my blog.

Yes, education is a privelege, and you'd better to learn to treasure it because it will pass as the time goes by and even you regret you can let it come back. people always found it's harder to learn when they old and regret that they do not tresure this privelege.
We cannot say we do not have any regrets in our lives since we are human beings and we cannot be perfect. So why don't we transform our regrets into energy to sitimulate us to keep on performing on the right track.
