“Hey…..it’s almost 5!”, Xiao Nie shouted. We looked around, there were still a bunch of people gathered in Trafalgar Square. But we remembered to do some shopping before we went back to our “bed and breakfast” hotel. We stood up.
“What a nice day!”, I proclaimed. “Thank you, guys…..”. The girls looked at me.
“Thank you, for what?”, asked Laurie. “For the nice chat..!”, I continued.
“That’s what friends are for, right?”, said Annabel. “We share……and we learn each other, we are coming from different countries…..there are so many perspectives…..but the experience make us better”.
I could not agree more. Studying abroad has brought me into a different world I have never been. I feel so lucky for being me; for the reason I only know. I cannot wait for returning home, though I am still excited for living here, taking my Master Degree. It is not the degree that counts, but the positive changes I have made for my future! Next November, I will marry the man in my life. I convince myself that living together before marriage will provide nothing for my future happiness. I promise myself to make my marriage work!.
