Damn, it’s been almost a year since I last posted something on Tumblr.

At last, a second semester senior! After finals this past week I’m done with the first semester of my senior year and officially moving to my last semester of high school. As much as I’ve been waiting for these last few months, I wish I could speed back time. 

The past few months have been ridiculous. But mostly good, and hardly any bad. It’s crazy how when something that you don’t expect to happen happens, it surpasses any of your wildest expectations. 

Last night after our school’s Winterball dance I went with some of the homies to Denny’s for a late night meal. We talked about whatever, but we also talked about our final months in high school together. And it had me thinking.

I’m really going to miss Irvington. Not the actual school, but the students and teachers that are a part of the school. I’ve grown a lot over my four years at Irvington. I’ve learned more through my experiences than any content I could find in a textbook. I’ve had my ups and downs, but in the end I wouldn’t change anything from my past. Everything happens for a reason, and I’m glad to be where I am today.

With a semester left in high school, I want to make it the best one yet. No holding back, and no regrets. Time to live it up.

It’s been about 4 months since my last post on Tumblr. I thought i’d write about something that’s been on my mind lately.

High school. It’s an experience we all look forward to as young children, and an experience we all miss as adults. I’ve been in high school for almost three years, and I can say that’s in been one of the most memorable times of my life. Yes, the classes we take are rigorous and time consuming, but that’s what makes spending time with your friends even more cherishable. 

Friends, the people that keep you going each and everyday of your life. The ones who have the strongest influences on you, and those who you always lean on for guidance and support. As I reflect back, I start to realize how important each moment is of your high school life, because their aren’t many. I don’t want to leave high school thinking “What if?” I want to have the greatest experiences with my friends and family without holding back, and without regrets. 

What I fear most of life after high school is the environment I’m going to be surrounded in. I know I’m going to make new friends in college, but what about the ones in high school? And I know I’ll meet people down the line when I begin working, but what about the people I knew before? You can’t keep in touch with everyone, and I’m afraid of living in this world without companionship. 

I believe that’s the thing people fear at some point in their life. 

For now, I plan not worry about my future, and enjoy living in the present. There’s nothing wrong with preparing for your future, but constantly worrying about what’s going to happen in the long run, is only self-deprecating. 

That’s all I have to say today. Right now, I need to catch up on studying, and watch some NCAA basketball games. See you soon. 

Happy New Year. A fresh start, a new beginning. I’m relieved that the previous year has just passed. 2010 was one of the most stressful years of my life, and I’m glad that it’s over. I’m excited to get this year kicked off. I hope to achieve my new year resolutions, and accomplish whatever I set my mind to. Let the madness begin. 

i’m tree liem lam and i’m a loser. rebecca is my bestest friend in the ENTIREEEE world (: without her i would be even more of a loser.

its true.

Hello! My name is Liem, like Tree Limb. I’m pretty lame most of the time, and I get beaten up by girls a lot. I’m on the basketball team for Irvington HS, but after I scored for the other team, I became a benchwarmer. Darn it. Thanksgiving break is super good so far because I got to hang out with the two coolest people at Irvington! I left a persimmon in one of their cars, so I’m definately going to get beat up again when school starts. Sighh…Oh well. I’ll just go listen to Wedding Dress - Taeyang.

P.S. Hi grandma.

P.S.S. WOWOW Mindy. -Liem
