There are some points in life when every other thing is secondary. This is one of those moments, when millions of people are terrified and with a very grim future ahead.
We are all connected. Our group is like a family, we will work together for months, in some cases we will make friends forever. Our fellow student, Christine Irvika, is from Haiti, let's hope that her family is well and let's keep her in our thoughts. She is part of this family.
