I've given myself some time to reflect on one of the most remarkable trips I have ever taken. I feel so blessed to have had this opportunity. I feel so blessed in general. These past eight months have been so crazy, stressful, liberating, chaotic; A beautiful mess. I've said this numerous times but this trip was healing for me in so many ways.
I'm a firm believer that there's a reason for everything. Although I may be in the dark, God already has the light in store.
I enrolled in this course because a trip to Paris was so appealing. As a student-athlete the opportunity to study abroad is non-existent so when I heard about this course I jumped on the opportunity.
I was somewhat anxious about traveling to another country with nine other people I hardly knew, but it turned out wonderful. I want to take time to acknowledge each person, because without your presence I don't think this trip would be as special to me as it is.
Dr. Carter. Where do I begin (yearbook entry lol). You are such an amazing,loving, generous man. I don't know how you put up with all of us, and all of our craziness but you did it! Thank you for accommodating to my schedule and allowing me to take your courses as independent studies to work with my schedule. I am so thankful from the bottom of my heart for all you have done for me not only for this class, but in general! I know I can be a D I V A (two snaps) so thanks for putting up with me!
My girls.
You all are so special to me. The friendship we have is so pure, easy, challenging. We are all so different, yet alike. Tye, I love how confident you are. Thank you for teaching me the art of "giving face". Mariah. Thank you for ALWAYS making me laugh and sharing a coat or two ;) . Courtney, I don't even have words! You were the voice of reason. Thank you for sharing so many laughs with me that no one ever got. Lorene, the baby of the group, I love that you are passionate about so many things! Kendall, my buddy! We went through the struggle together (you know what I mean)! I love you all madly. It's because of our relationship I am learning how to be more patient, understanding of others, confident, and so much more.
Guys:
Lamine, Joel, Charles. I know I was a diva so thanks for putting up with me, especially you Lamine! Joel. I love you. From the week we spent in Paris I have learned so much from you! You challenge me to think, and I love that. Charles, you challenged us all in basically every conversation, but this trip just wouldn't have been the same without you!
I love each and every one of you. You all are truly a blessing to my life. I learned so many things about every one of you from random conversations to playing would you rather? at 3am. I love you all madly!
