Traum

[missyberg]

Timeline:now. I was in school again, taking some kind of final. I had done really well. I was waiting for my results and there was going to be an awards ceremony at the end for those that had been exceptional. I stopped off at the Heath store, which is one of the hobby stores my dad used to goto when I was young. I didn't think they existed anymore and it was quite perplexing to find one. I went inside. I saw things and loved and appreciated my dad. I was enchanted. I missed the ceremony because I got too wrapped up in that store. I even knew I was going to be late but I ddn't know the consequences. When I got back to the school ceremony I found out I had scored in the top rank but since I had not been there I could not claim my trophy. It was a digital camera that I had been wanting. I was disappointed. Once again I had missed out on something for me because I got caught up in someone else's thing. The dream morphed. I got a look at the camera and made myself feel better by saying it was a cheap thing anyway and I didn't really want it.

(This is way better than the chasing dreams. )
