Moonlit Room

Last Friday, as I was about to go to sleep, I thought I had forgotten to turn off one of the lamps. To my surprise, I realized that the light actually came from the moon. The pale moonlight from the window shone perfectly on my bed, quietly but beautifully. Usually, the nights are lonely and gloomy, but tonight, the moonlight brought a surge of serenity and solemnity to the room, the space that seemed so vacant and empty before. I felt calm and at peace. After three months, I wouldn't be here anymore. I would be in France, looking out from a different window, looking at the moon from a different perspective, and sleeping on a different bed. Recently, all I could focus on was preparing myself for my trip to France, and imagining what life would be like there. It's hard to remember that, almost three years ago, I was still in Thailand, counting the days until I'd finally arrive to Taiwan and start my university life. Now, it's like the whole thing all over again, but this time, it's a new chapter in my story. Though I don't know what awaits me in the future, or what I am to expect of my life in France, I'll try my best to write my story to the fullest as I can. I would sure miss my life in NCCU, especially the view from my dorm room!
