Weekend...

Had a very good weekend! Visited old friends at a new school, tasted the best carrots I had ever had; learned a few things about myself including the following: I like chopping vegetables and want learn to cook, I actually like the strange Fountainview Academy custom of eating toast with butter, brewer's yeast, and cayenne pepper on it, and I like playing the harp; and finally, another step in reconciliation with an old and dear friend has been taken. Such a great weekend! =) Now it's time to get back into the daily grind, not that I mind. I love my school and my friends here... but there is always that part of my mind that wonders what would have happened if... ?



The Road Not Taken (by Robert Frost)
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth; 


Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
