This poem make me feel so happy, it was like it had been written just for me. It really made me think that perhaps I shouldn’t just give up on my life like I was going to, that happiness might really be out there for me. The poem talked about how she cherished her cereal and actually enjoyed her work. It really made me think that just maybe, the so called real world that is so unforgiving and cruel towards bad students isn’t so. It made me think that perhaps the world is more fairytalesque, and if your really true to your own soul happiness will just fall into your lap as if by magic.
