Life has been so fun, crazy, and hard at the same time. I can see why exchange students come back home angry just because no one understands what we go through. Yes, you can imagine, and... you can try to relate but until you have traveled to a different world by yourself, left the comfortable and normal behind you, and have had to smile through embarrassing, saddening, tiring moments you have absolutely no idea. I wish I could explain. But even my explanation wouldn’t help you understand. Believe me I’m having a MINDBOMB experience here. I’m having the time of my life and have a picture to prove it but in the dark of night, the aloneness of showers, the long bus ride home your mind wonders back to the old normal and you wonder if you will ever be the same person again.

and knowing you will never be the same, you press on because life is all about that. You can hear that echo on the wind, in the sun, from the moonshine, they all whisper, "Never be the same...grow....change....learn...love...worship!"
