tulips will be tulips

i haven't written in a while. it's just that in this society, the norms dictate that studying is more important than journal writing. and a part of me knows that to survive at all, you must also survive in the social world, even if that may require that the mountain will bend, not because the wind's howling necessitates it to do so, but because it must learn to sacrifice just so that the wind will spare it's inhabitants.

"what am i saying?", you ask. quite simply, i need to study and do well in school if i ever want to get to either one of the paths i am bent on taking. easier said than done, though....

by the way, they're growing :)
