I suppose I should say/write something since I haven’t blogged in a while.
There’s been A LOT going on in my life…
For starters, my little brother is finally out of the hospital. He was discharged last Sunday (Thank God!). Before he was discharged, he was given a release to go to his high school graduation. I cried so hard when he got out of his wheelchair to walk across the stage. I’m sure everyone that was sitting by me was wondering why I was crying so hard. After Chiso’s grad, when we were outside taking pictures, so many people came up to him to say how happy they were that he made it to graduation. Made me cry even more! It just sucks that he had to go back to the hospital instead of going to Senior Party.

The other thing that sucks is that my dad was still in Nigeria, so he missed Chiso’s graduation.
So…I still haven’t applied for my passport…opps!!! I need to do that soon, because I leave for LONDON at the end of August. AND, I still need to file for a student visa since I will be taking classes while there. I promise myself, I’m going to apply for my passport next week!
So…again, lol… I went to CHICAGO for the first time! I’ve lived in MI my whole life, it’s so crazy that I’ve never been to Chicago before. I loved it! One of my old roommates showed Sasha, my travel buddy, and I around. We went shopping, of course, to some clubs, and to Navy Pier. I got to ride a ferris wheel for the first time. The view from the top of the ferris wheel was so beautiful.

I love Sasha so much. I’m happy that I got to experience Chicago for the first time with her. We had the best conversations on the drive there, while we were there, on the ferris wheel, and always. lol. She is the definition of a friend. As are my other friends.
