How I did it: Through AIESEC (university organization). I am working in a refugee camp which has 1000 refugees going in and out. and here I've learned so much - from the kids, from the women, from the men. I have heard stories: heartbreaking as they are, the stories showed how these refugees are strong and courageous. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I accepted the fact that I was depressed and suicidal because at first, I was like "No, way. I am stronger than this".But I was not.Then I got help from my family and friends. I saw a psychiatrist after that and from there, I learned to love life step by step, little by little. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I was fascinated by my brother, who is a surfer. So when he invited me to one of his trips and go surfing, I jumped right in! His friends taught me to surf and after pushing me a couple of times, I finally learned how to catch a wave. Standing up isn't the hardest part, no sir, but catching a wave is.From then on, I've been surfing ever since. Read how I did it…
Ex-boyfriend was from Kosova and his parents (whom I still love) cannot understand anything except Shqip. Had to learn a few words turned phrases turned sentences.
But I am not perfect in the language and I want to be although I can understand people when they speak slowly. I can create sentences too, but slowly (again).
And yes, I am planning to go to Kosova soon, just to visit.
Just because I love Hermes.
Just because I love J. Birkin.
Just because I watch too much TV.
Just because I practice conspicuous consumption.
I try hard, you know? To get it.
It—the perfect instep kick.
It—where I can here the thump of the ball against my spikes.
It—where I control the ball: how high, how strong, how high.
I try. But I can’t seem to… yet. But by this season, I will try harder. I will work until I get it right.
It’s not just the kick, you know? It’s everything coming together: the love for the game, for my school and for myself.
