這天依舊是陰雨綿綿，

早上還載著媽咪去台中要看眼科，

卻忽略了周四周五那位醫生都在榮總進行手術，

白白跑一趟之外，還淋了一身溼。

下午去學校還是斷斷續續下著雨，破壞了上課的情緒，

上完一堂課後，

就拉著瑪思琪托去圖書館看電影，

"翻滾啊，男孩"(Jump, Boys)，又是一部催淚大戲，

要不是是在圖書館看，貝貝一定又要幫眼睛洗澡了!

不過，很多事的確是要從小就開始培養，

像他們練體操的小朋友，最小才6.7歲，

如果不在這個年紀就學著堅持，要怎麼以奧運為目標呢?

貝貝也有好多好多想學的東西，但是日子一天天過去，

漸漸發現時間真的不夠用，如果再加上額外的學習，除了時間問題，更重要的是金錢問題，

在貝貝家，才藝是不受重視的，學校的課業能夠得滿分最好!100分的考卷才是證明成就的唯一途徑。

因此，想學別的，行!自己繳學費。

貝貝這簡單的打工，連夢想都勾不到邊。

所以，看見劇裡的小朋友每天練到晚，被老師罵到哭，

貝貝除了心疼，更多的是羨慕，

羨慕他們有那樣的環境，從小就追逐著夢想。

希望我們未來的主人翁不再只是盲目的補補補，

應該要學出個目標，追出個夢想，然後努力的好好揮霍這優渥的環境，走出一段燦爛的人生!
