When Sakura is blooming, Japan becomes graduation season. So, some of my friends graduated from my college this year. God, How first times flies. Whenever I remember nice times at the ICU, they were at their. そうちゃん、なお、りょーすけ、りょうじ、まさき...now everybody stepped out from here. I don't say such a thing usually, but I wonder If could make the times back and put myself those moments again. How precious moments I have spent with them, and how precious they are...
As all of my friends have already stepped into the next level, I'm also walking into the next chapter of my life. I officially announce at here but, I will go to the University of Helsinki from this autumn (now you get the meaning of
this post. Invitation from their deans arrived my house at that day). This is what I've planed these 2 years, and finally got the ticket to the place where I want to belong to. I will study under their area studies institute, and make my BA thesis on the topic of Russian politics (diplomacy?) at there. Every professors ask me to go to the grad, but it's still not sure what comes after the BA. A diploma of the Helsinki is much more attractive to me than the ICU's is.
Finally, I want to put this poem at here, again. My feeling is still same as
the day I wrote it first time.
下馬飲君酒
問君何所之
君言不得意
帰臥南山陲
但去莫復問
白雲無尽時
さようなら、友よ。また会う日まで。そしてこんにちは、新しい人生。
