An Education 

 

There is a girl who try to live her life without any emotion; only it, her name is Jenny. She see everything gray and dark, "her life is like a schoolgirl's one", only looking for homework and books, anything more, just without fun and colors! She want more than only it, she try to find a path to run away from it. Her wish is going to Oxford, because she knows everything will change there. She think she is going to be freed if move on herself to that place.
First of all I have to tell you that she is a good student, she is in an orchestra being the cello’s player and is the favorite pupil of the English teacher because of her interest in that subject (she wants to study something like that). 

                Then she found a man who changes her life, because he gave her all that she wanted, all that she could ever thought, with him, she went to Paris, smoked some cigarettes, danced in the dark (night), she went to Oxford, with her father’s permission, and more things. As you can see, it seems like perfect life, and she had thought the same. To her anything more was important, she only needed to be with her new old man. Some girls in her school (her friends) used to call her: Jane Eyre.

                One day, when she didn’t imagine anything, her boyfriend named David, purpose her marriage and she agreed She still thinking it was the best thing could ever happened but her teacher and head teacher didn’t agreed, because of it Jenny leave off the school, wondering how wonderful her life was going to be. After all, school wasn’t important, because it was “boring and grey”.

                Some day when she, her parents and boyfriend was going to arrive a luxurious restaurant, Jenny saw something unexpected: his “boyfriend” was marriage, and she didn’t know! Obviously Jenny’s face change totally, there was a really disappointed girl (all her life was going to fall over the abysm). Jenny demand David to carry her and her parents to their house, and because of her angry she didn’t talk to David through that time.

                Finally, Jenny take a good decision and leave David, because she wanted to reorganize her life. And she didn’t give up because now, all her attention was in her future. At last she could get in Oxford and all what she was praying for were met.
