ahead of me, It was Germany. The Fatherland was cold, and the sun never came out. Some say “never be fooled by what you see on the outside because on the inside it’s often a different story”, It did not seem that way to me the first day. I had major jet lag from the everlasting eight hour flight. Next, the sky was raining cats and dogs.

happened after summer school, when I left the country to visit the Philippines. I came back to the US, and my voice was not the main topic on my head, as I forgot about it trying to finish my “Back to School” video and attempting to get through jet lag.

sky are pastels, ranging from salmon pink to a shy lavender around the ends. I struggled for words but couldn’t find any, and soon realized I didn’t need them. When we got home that night, Zohra and I stayed up until 4 am, partially because of my jet lag and partially because we had far too many stories to exchange, as if someone had pulled a stopper on four years of bottled up memories that we never got to share. She told me about her sporting competitions and going to a private school with…

Following my eighth grade year, I was both excited to finally go off to high school and ready to have an eventful summer. Luckily, as soon as I got out for summer break, my grandparents reveal to me that they were going to Northern Italy in about a month and they wanted to take me along for the trip.
