''Moment of Peace...''

Hey guys, i hope you are fine, it has been a long time i have not been here i admit, was thinking hard about what to tell you...

Then tonight the idea came, to write about the sense of ''peace'' i had today.

New York and St John's are still great, offering me what they can, but the past week has not been really easy for me, with one of my grandma passing away and my little s

ister not getting her visa to study abroad, my family is just going through a hard moment, and even though i cannot change a thing, i wish i could just be with them to share in our pain, i can say that it ''suspended'' my honeymoon stage to a bit of homesickness...but i know everything will be fine.

What is so great for me is that we never know what can help, that's why we should at the least give ''gifts of smiles'' as i call it, because for me the laughter and funny moments in the cafeteria, in the classroom, with the latinos dance kings, in the subway, in the chinese restaurant trying to eat sushi, in the cinema with Hima and elsewhere we find ourselves together is just really really great, it has helped me throughout, so smile and laugh guys!!

Today we were to this amazing place called New Jersey at Sue's house, oh my God , the trees, the lake just breathtakingly beautiful. When we finished our meal (we ate A LOT!) we just relaxed and i just felt a sense of peace, real peace that reminded me that i am not alone, that everything will be fine. It was just great and i wanted to share that with you, hope it is not too personal!
