3rd of June 2013, I had just graduated a few days earlier, I'd spent the entire day before crying and saying my goodbyes to some of the most wonderful people I have ever known. I hadn't gone to bed all night, because I couldn't stop thinking so I decided to pack up my entire room. Saga got up early, right before my cab came to pick me up, she gave me a big hug and I didn't want to let her go. I tried crying then, I felt like I had too, but I was all out of tears. I wanted to stay, but the place was getting so empty, I didn't want to stay like that, I wanted the ones who'd already left to come back. I couldn't rap my head around the fact that I was saying goodbye. Goodbye to my friends, goodbye to my school, goodbye to Kenya.
Today it is the 3rd of June 2014. It is exactly one year later and I can't believe it. I've been pinching myself in the arm all day to remind myself that this is real, this is how fast time flies by and this is a year later. I still remember everything as if it was yesterday, I can still feel my emotions as if I had left this morning. It is unbelievable.
Kenya, you have given me so much. You gave me experiences that the average person would never get in a lifetime, you gave me some of my best laughs, the most amazing friends and such wonderful memories that I will carry around and cherish for the rest of my life. If it were up to me, I'd come back in a second but life is unfortunantly not that fair. I miss you so much and I can still find myself in tears just thinking back to all the lovely moments. I love you, Kenya!
