             "It is good to have an end to journey toward, but it is the journey that matters, in the end. Le Guin only now have significant meaning in my life. After four years of my journey into enlightenment, the finish line finally made itself visible. I could hear it screaming my name, reaching, and pulling me into its majestic pool of bliss, inch by inch. Initially forced into the seemingly endless race that some refer to as high school, I had unavoidably assigned it as a part of my life.

Perhaps an exposure of an extraordinary staff would also develop, sandwiched between the abnormality of nonexistent extracurricular activities and the unfortunate passing of edification. The spectators can only decide for themselves as how to judge my trip through this last lap, but is I, the screenwriter, director, producer and editor, who holds the true meaning of this past year that I wish to convey.
