        After installing a nice painting on the wall, Hu the owl (who the hoo?) decides to get out of the house and take a relaxing break on the beach, feeling the press of the sand on the feathery back, hearing the sound of the coastal ocean waves, feeling like it's heaven...dreaming of 0007...saving Anne on the beautiful shoreside.*



(Pronounced like "Anne", with a British-ly accent.  A yawny one.  With a falling tone.  Yeah.*)

There's still time to pursue your dreams before school finals come.
We're about halfway through the academic year, be it highschool, college, or uni.
A month or two, and we have some small breaks.
A few more months, and we're all on holidays.
Don't give up on your dreams just yet.
Take time to remember what your real dreams were in the first place.
But please do get up from the beach and do something.
Like for Hu the owl, the story will continue.
And maybe we'll have even better hopes and dreams than Hu the owl.

Underlining is for the Order mnemonic (an extra bonus if you can figure it out, it's quite easy actually)
