Hi everyone

The last couple of days have been really rough and I'm not going to go into details on here but I do want to say a few things...

First of all, I just want to tell you that I love and miss you all so much!! Although I wish I was at home right now, I am really glad that I pushed myself and accepted this job opportunity because it is a once in a lifetime experience. You should always challenge yourself to do things out of your comfort zone and enjoy life as much as possible. Don't put off things that you are hesitant about because you never know if you will get another chance to do them. Also think about how lucky we all are to be loved by so many and make sure you tell your friends and family how you feel as often as possible. And think about the great things you have been able to accomplish so far in your lives.

As my brilliant friend Justin once said, life is like a rollercoaster with many highs and lows and unexpected turns, but we must embrace it and look forward to the next high because some of the lows really suck!! I hope you are all having a better week than I am so far (and it's only Tuesday!) and I am looking forward to my next high on the rollercoaster of life :o)

Love you all!
