Every ending had a beginning

I've been talking to a lot of people about my next phase. The summer program came and left, with sweet and sour instances stuck into my cheeks and my bones. Now, tonight, is my last night in here, in MUWCI, el pais de las maravillas, en mi casa.

Now I think I just ran out of energy to keep trying to make plans.  I think I will just let it hit me like a bullet in the back, and deal with the consequences. Midnight has come, it has come and left with all of its magic and wonder, that time in which things seemed to be eternal but they weren't quite so, and that made them more beautiful.

My future has a name, a place and many nationalities.

What I take from this place... friends. Lessons. Inspiration. Ideas. Confidence. Problems. Questions. Languages. Songs. Paintings. Food. Clothes. Rocks. 50+ kgs of luggage.

I find it funny when I see a picture of myself from two years back and people don't believe it's me.

I am scared, I think, because home does not seem to be the break that it should be, particularly with the politics of prejudice and bending backwards involved.

COA... I think I might have rushed into it a bit too fast to see what I was doing exactly, and now that I have time to look at the clear picture, well, it begins to show other colors. But then again, how many of my coyears didn't do so as well?

My grades gave me that sense of achievement, of feeling that I actually CAN achieve the things I want to if I work hard for it, it's a simple and complicated as that.

I like what Ritu said the other day about ghosts, I think I've seen many of them around lately, saying goodbyes and hellos (particularly in front of the med center).

Dear Hill, I will see you in some years, we will both probably have changed, but I hope you know how much I loved living here and how much it changed me. I hope you continue to change your wardrobe and by doing so you are able to give shelter and things to think about to more teenagers who want to save the world. Thank you for taking me with such a cozy embrace all throughout my time here. Much love, Khristian

...and for the future, well, we'll see how it all goes.

See you all (if any readers left) in another blog, in another place and another space. Thank you for adding an audience to this experiment. :)
