relaxed atmosphere
had
disappeared, and
peer group pressure
to work hard was strong. Meanwhile,
at the
back of everyone
’
s mind
was what we would do next after graduation. As for me,I
wanted to travel,and I wanted to be a writer.I
braced
myself for some
resistance
to
the idea from my father,who wanted me to go to law school,and
follow his path
through life.
However,he supported what I wanted but he made me think about it by
watching the crabs
.The cage was full of crabs. One of them was trying to escape,but
each time it
reached the top
the other crabs
pulled it back
.In the end it gave up
lengthy struggle
to escape and started to prevent other crabs from
watching crabs,my father told me not to
be pulled back
by others,and to get to know
himself better

that when the reaper arrives,we

regrets
