on celebrating the last day of classes

when i was little, my family climbed a mountain every month
being the youngest, i complained the most - are we there yet?
witty dad always told me - just around the corner
of course after 1, 2, &3 corners, i still didn't see a top

then a few years rolled out, i havent seen a top yet.
i have jumped a hurdle one at a time, one after another
just high school, just this semester, just one more final
now i am telling myself, just one last year in university

that. that corner. monumental? cornerstone? but by now,
i know i wouldnt even be close to a top even after this corner
maybe i am taking a wrong corner, maybe a top is a illusion
sometimes i wish i never started climbing up this mountain

If you keep looking at the journey as just one more corner, you are less likely to get overwhelmed and goals will be achieved quicker.
