my memory

Many things happen in the first 3weeks.
Every time and every moment, i was always with my Colombian friends.
I can't forget this summer.
I'll never forget about the moment spend with them.
This three weeks passed so fast like a wind, I couldn't follow the speed.

At first, I thought it's too hard for me to cooperate with new culture, but this belief gradually changed.
Thanks for every Colombian friends.
They all are so friendly, kind and always smiling.
Their smile and hug always made me feel better and relax.
I remember that all of them run ahead to me as soon as they saw me.
I was very happy when they smile and laughing.
We shared a lot of moment with each other.
Sometimes, we faced some difficulties especially culture difference, but at the end we were always smiling.

I can't forget everything.
I still remember about them and the moment.

Our class room,
The stairs to the class,
Smoothie they always drank,
Smell of the grass,
Our dormitory,

Everything around me put them in my mind.


I love you all.
I miss you so much.


BUT

I decided that I'll be happy and always smiling.
After the left from SMC, I felt so sad and cried often.
However, my friends told me that

"Please be happy and don't cry. Because smile always makes people happy. If you cried, I will feel sad and crying. If you smiled, I will feel happy. So, you should smile. That's our style. Colombian style."

"Don't cry. Even if we were apart, our heart is always with each other. Because we are family in mind. Please remember our smile when you feel sad. You can rely on me whenever you want. The distance is not problem. If our heart is close, we can feel each other every time."

That's why I decided not to cry or feel sad anymore.
We are always close.
We are family.


I wish I could jot down every memory of you.
