Bye New York. Welcome back!

~ You build a life in 17 years, leave it for 10 months. Then you build a life for 10 months and leave it forever. Which one is harder? ~

And that is the question that I have been asking myself the last weeks...

Two Months Later...

"Homesick"

Homesickness is just a state of mind for me. I'm always missing someone or someplace or something; I'm always trying to get back to some imaginary somewhere. My life has been one long longing.

Today, I felt a great emptiness... Today, I was watching a TV show based in New York, and tears came to my eyes. Every time I saw a place I had visited, memories would beat me. 

This Sunday, it would be a year since I flew to the US, but unfortunately, I am not there anymore... In a few days also, it would be two months since I left the US. 

I am sorry if I did not write any post since june. I was so busy during the summer, and I knew, if I started writing a new post about my last days, I would cry. But do not worry, I will find the strength that I need and finish my post.

Thanks to this exchange year, I have met wonderful people. Without them, my year wouldn't have been the same.

Let me tell you, that you will never be forgotten.

Squad, friends and some teachers, you will be always in my heart, and I know, I will be back in Mount Vernon with you all.

Love you always and don't forget this: it's not a good-bye, it's a see you later.

Love always,

Nereu

A Knight To Remember...

May 26th, a date I will never forget. My great and long weekend started with a great event.

Prom finally was here, and the seniors of Mount Vernon High School were ready to slay at prom. 

Enjoy as a kid

Hey everybody!

Mayo ha empezado hace poco... o por lo menos es lo que creemos... Sí, sin darnos cuenta de lo rápido que pasa el tiempo, en vez de estar en los primeros días del mes, ya estamos a 17... ¡Pero qué se le va a hacer! (Time, keep calm and stop flying).

Spring Playlist!

"Let the flow drives you crazy"

Hey guys!

Spring started almost two months ago, and since I am here, I've discovered a lot of music that I did not know, and also music which brought me memories.

In this post, I will make a playlist with my favorite songs so far.
