"
....Youth's Like Diamonds In The Sun"

            WEIJ never really existed till high school.  There was always Weijian, some shy, lonely lost, and ambitious boy.  Though born in the southern tip of China, Canton..probably on a warm day of May, He arrived here at the age of 2 and resided at Flushing, Queens, for the most part of his younger years.  His youth was easy and free, made only of Bright summers  and snow-laden winters, shared with neighboring friends, most notable of them was a tall skinny Indian boy.
He carried his life all the same to junior high school, discovering other worlds that existed besides his. He never assimilated well in to them though, probably because he was too indulged in other interests that went beyond most other peoples concerns. His priorities were enlightenment rather then amusement. He discovered his talents in chess, poetry and other artistic genres.  yes he was in a world of his own....but he was happy..........the brightest of all stars were always the youngest IE. The Sun.

"...Everything Changes..The Moon Was Not As Bright As It Was Yesterday"

    And so High School came along.....A new Galaxy! Townsend Harris was to be where Weijian would find himself and a more secure world to revolve around.  Blessed with a great scholastic atmosphere, Weijian's abilities and talents slowly flourished. Yet he   remained the same, ...lonley, Shy, and Lost. His first year was an adjustment...classes were harder, people were more foreign, and the gurls weren't that much  prettier. He found one friend...a tall asian boy.  In every ones life there's always a character that plays the best friend....and at that point unknowingly Weijian found his. The next few years that followed..Weijian slowly became different. His attitudes were different, his clothes were different, his height however stayed the same. And his intimate circle of friends grew to a small group of asians. with them Weij projected his world with others...making new channels to newer worlds. Yet he was still in a world of his own thoughts and dreams, occasionally shared with his tall friend who was not as shy set as before. And so Weij watched his movies, took his tests,  played his instruments, and chased his gurls and dreams. He followed a life style similar to a thousand other people...only that weijian Had enjoyed Studying latin~

"...Qui Gradum Academicum Adeptus Est (the graduate)"


             Senior year was where Weij learned what could not be learned in books...LIFE. GIven a relaxed academic year, Weij threw his energy into his college of dreams..Cooper Union..and as the lesson of perseverance showed,..he was accepted.  Weij was happy. And so was his tall set friend..who had changed more so then anyone.  And Weij continued to live his life...attending the prom, hanging out, and discovering his friends.  They said that Senior Year was the best...Weij believed that it was his Friends that made it so. After the graduation...Life became a nostalgia and eternal longing for the past.

"...The Nights Were Brighter Then The Days"

And now we come to what was only a few months ago..the first term of college...Weij changed even more. He strayed from his friends and ventured into the real world without an anchor to his own.....and what followed was a slew of difficulties. For him College was an extreme of every emotion and experience mixed in one cloud of confusion. Love and Pain grew closer, Tests were harder, People were unfriendlier yet people were so nice.  And Weij discovered that he could not return to his world..............

"...................................."

And so we are back to now. Weij is here, So much has gone by, and in such a rush..Life moves too fast and time moves too slow. THAT BITES!....and so Weij carries on...finding along his Trek back to his World new friends and Newer friends in his old ones..He has also found Weijian...Still Lonely, Shy, and ever  lost.............

                                                                        2 BE CONTINUED.................


TRIBUTE TO MY FRIENDS
