Acacia

I sketched a tree in Foothill College outside the library court . His name is Acacia . With over thirty feet tall , Acacia stretches his long arms upward and sideward from his body , as if aiming something in the sky . The smaller and thinner branches hold the tree 's most precious treasure - his leaves . Green and tiny , the leaves of Acacia lend its shade to those who need a shield from the abruptness of the wind and the revulsion of the sun . Acacia is

not selfish . For a long time , he has been offering a piece of its space for bird 's nests , and lovers ' as well . It has been a long time and yet no one still knows Acacia 's great great story

A warm , summer night was the atmosphere in [hometown] when Acacia had awakened from a long , silent sleep . His eyes , who used to see the darkness from the below , gleamed after seeing the Moon .

However , in this place , Acacia learned to think more critically and to interact with other people of his same age . He also gained self-confidence through the extra-curricular activities he had participated with . For Acacia , being in high school seemed to be the happiest and most memorable part of his life

However , all good things will end , so they say . Right after graduation Acacia decided to pursue higher education . He then went to Foothill College in Los Angeles . From this turning point in his life , Acacia 's view of the world suddenly changed . If in high school he thought that education can gain even if one is a happy-go-lucky , in college this perception was altered . He learned that to be able to survive , not only in college but also in life , one must know how to balance things studies and extra-curricular activities , time , and most importantly relationships with fellows .
