It's interesting though, how excited and nervous I was sitting in the car with mother half a year ago. I imagined myself enduring long, sometimes boring classes just playing the violin, annoying teachers who thought they knew everything, 2/5 rating on the school meals and in the middle of all this gaining new friendships that would last forever. I had all that, but it still turned out incredibly far away from what I really imagined it to be like when I first stepped into the reception that day.
I grew up with the mindset that if you were always prepared both mentally and physically it contributed to a much easier life. There would be no surprises to knock you off the road and you would be able to get through anything with minor difficulties.
What I didn't know back then was that you can plan and prepare all you want, but when you fall in love for the first time there's no one who can do anything about it. Not even you. It hits you like a flash of lightning from a clear heaven and once you're hit, you will never completely recover. Maybe it's better to just, you know, go with the flow?
