5 Years Abroad, What I Have Been Changed
Today is August 8th, 2021. 5 years ago today, I carried my 2 suitcases and stepped on the flight to Los Angeles. I was full of excitement and beautiful dreams, never expected all the tough times and frustrations waiting in the future.

A Summer to Remember
I remember that day in a heartbeat. It was one of those hot summers where it hadn’t rained in months, the air was sweltering, and the ground was as dry as the Atacama dessert. Moorland fires blazed unknowingly while we swam in the river-pool to cool our burning bodies. You were sat there on the rocks by the side of the water, sipping at your beer that was slightly warm, watching me, silently. I lay there floating, looking up at the trees that surrounded us in a halo. Somehow, it felt as though we were far away from everything and everyone, in our little world of shared solitude, and yet I knew the rest of the world was just a short walk away.

Pics Or It Didn't Happen
In 1945, Dwight D. Eisenhower saw the Nazi Death Camps for the first time. He testified before Congress and showed German citizens what they allowed to happen under Nazi rule. He insisted everyone in the army take as many pictures as possible of the horrors in front of them.

Fantasy Hike
A number of days ago, my sisters and I went on a hike on a nearby trail close to our house. It was a trek to get to the trail itself, but it was worth the extra walk. Once you step onto the trail, the forest feels as if it is luring you farther in. The feeling is similar to the way the ocean draws you in when you stand at the edge, the waves lapping at your ankles.

June 3rd 2016
June 3rd I had myself a little Debbie honey bun today and I saw some ants so I decided to share some with them. I expected them to be all over it, but they were avoiding it like the plague. Then a short while later I noticed some dead ants surrounding the pieces I broke off. Looks like those things really are bad for you.

Bonjour Paris...and hello my gorgeous crepe of life
It was a gray day in all accounts, and we had just woken up pretty early in London (around 5:00 am) and we had a busy day ahead of us. We washed our faces, changed, and got our stuff ready (passports, money, rain clothing, Eiffel Tower tickets and so forth) and once everything was set, we headed downstairs to the reception at our Hotel (The Pelham) where they had prepared two small breakfast bags for us, and our cab had been called. From here we headed to St. Pancreas Station to meet up with our tour guide and receive our train tickets and general items such as maps and emergency contact information. We waited there for a bit and ate the small breakfast provided by the hotel (it was glorious) and then like an international flight, we were called in and boarded the train and waited for everyone at our seats. It was a smooth ride to be honest, we took a small nap and then after a few hours we opened our eyes and there we were, entering the city of light, Paris.

Pepían
I made dinner for my closest friend the other day. She is going through a terrible episode in her life and all she wanted was some refuge from the chaos.

Culture Shock
When I was 10 years old my mother met a man who was a soldier in the Black Watch Army. He was on leave at the time spending time with his family. He and my mother met on a night out and after a few weeks of dating he asked her to marry him the reason being was because he was being sent to Hong Kong and he wanted us to go with him. My mum to my astonishment agreed, I was not ready to be uprooted to another house never mind country. Two weeks after the wedding we were standing at the train station with my grandparents saying our goodbyes and waiting for the train that would take us to the airport.

Socially Isolated
This is something that I have wanted to write for a long time now. I suppose it is something that even once this article is concluded I will still want to write about. A part of me wants to preface everything to come with some sort of warning or preemptive apology, but in all honesty I can't come up with one that feels sufficient. Let's just say that I love where I live now and the people that I am surrounded by, and that none of this is indicative of any shortcomings on their part.
