Today, I don't feel like doing anything. I just wanna lay in my bed .. literally. But, NOOOO.
I welcome myself "back to reality". I just arrived from my three week USA vacation last night, and I'm really thankful and blessed for everything- the time I spent with my immediate family and my relatives that migrated there, the chance to frolic in the snow for the first time, the places and cities I've visited, the time off I had to relax and enjoy myself out of the country, away from the books and stress, the old friends I reunited with, as well as the chance to meet new ones, facing my fears, spending the Christmas Holidays there, etc etc. I can't be thankful enough for everything that had happened. I did learn and experience a lot, and I really thank the Lord that I had the opportunity to do so. It was one memorable trip. A great experience I'll always treasure in my heart.
