How do you use social media to keep in contact with your friends?
Through Blogging—A great way to share longer, detailed descriptions of my experiences abroad. I
provide friends and family with the link to my blog prior to departure and try and update it as often as
possible.
What is the best film you have seen at the cinema? Why?
The Road (2009). Set in a post nuclear-war world, this movie is a tale of a father and his kid
wandering through the wasteland, that once used to be a developed civilization, in search of food and
shelter to keep them alive. It's heart-wrenching to see the fear and helplessness of the father for his son
and the extent to which he would go to protect him. You need a strong heart to see the misery inflicted
by people upon themselves. However, for me, the takeaway from the story is this - If there is hope, there
is life.
I invited my friends, and they came, surprised as they saw a birthday they have never seen before. Lights
everywhere and they saw me sitting on the sofa, looking like a princess. We sat together, and we sang
Happy Birthday, and at the same time we lighted both candles: the original and the flower. I was
shocked on how elegant the flower one was, and as I blew the candles I was too amazed on the flower
candle that it took me 6 seconds just to blow it out!
We talked, danced, sang, and had too much fun. It lasted for 5 HOURS! From 7 p.m to midnight.
