Each morning on the bus part of my journey to work, for the last several months I pass a building site. A hairdresser I was speaking to on the bus one morning told me that it was a school being constructed, and ever since I always look to see how it is coming along. It's huge. I took some pictures of it for you to see. Please excuse the reflections from the bus windows.
It fills me with hope somehow, to see a new school being built. I don't know why, really, but it does. I like to imagine the children going about their lives getting their education in its classrooms, having fun while doing it. I like to imagine them having fun in the playground areas, growing strong in mind and body.
In what will seem like no time at all, it will be my turn to help guide some of them on their way, since maybe some will come to to my classroom, and I'll teach them Physics. Yeah.... they are a big part of the future. (I'm not going to break into song at this point, don't worry.) Sounds really cheesy, I know. Call me old-fashioned. I don't mind. -cvj (Of course, someone's going to write in and tell me that it's actually going to be a Bank, or another [strike] bloody[/strike] car dealer. But I'm off to that bar I mentioned before you can say that and ruin my evening....!)
