My friends always take amazing photos of me in restaurants/cafes with extremely golden yellow light. At Mariage Frères, Louvre.
My little won the stroll competition at her neo retreat!! I’m nearly in tears - So much pride :’)
...et aussi un grand sentiment de saudade. Elle me manque. Parfois je n’en peux plus la culpabilité et la tristesse d’être loin, mais je ressens le même à tous ceux que j’aime et j’avais quitté et je sais que je reviendrai…
![It only just hit me today that I live in Europe now.
3,600 miles from New York. 5,500 miles from Ben. A literal ocean away.
It might not seem so crazy to those of you who know me for my traveling, but here I am with three French phone numbers, a French bank account, a Parisian address, and an ever so slight British English tinge coming into my speech. If you told me when I was 16 that I would travel and work overseas in two years’ time, I would have said, “no duh”. But if you’d told me in five years I’d be living in Europe, I would have called you on future mindfucking hijinks. But here I am.
“Oh, the places you’ll go…”
[And yes, I’ve never been to South America or Mexico. I know. Weird.]](http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lykfao0T791qzoyijo1_r2_500.png)

Truth.
“I am a sister of KAPPA PHI LAMBDA. The letters that I wear are not stitched on my clothing, but engraved in my heart. They are a testament to our bonds of eternal sisterhood, our dedication to serving the community, and our commitment to promoting cultural diversity. My letters do not make me better than anyone else… They make me better than I used to be.”
Regardless of what anyone thinks, this means the world to me. I’m forever grateful that I opened my eyes to both my own potential and the potential of Greek life to actually make a positive impact on my life and the community around me.
