Fly High Shaquita

Hello everyone,

I told myself that this blog would be a representation of my time abroad: the good, the bad, and the ugly. I'm sad to say that today is one of the saddest days in my life. One of my good friends has passed away. Sara Sawick was an infectious spirit so full of love and life. From volleyball to softball, royal masque to kairos, parking lot dance parties, to late night conversations we used to be inseperable. You always were there to make everyone around you laugh. No matter how mad I was at you, you would always make me laugh and everything would be fine. Our relationship was a unique one: the definition of love/hate. I'll never be able to look at a squirrel or sing Baby It's Cold Outside without thinking of you. Your death was a tragic reminder of the fragility of life. I only wish I could be home to say goodbye to you one last time. You lived a life full of laughter and YOLO-ing where you always told every one around you "why blend in when you can stand out". You certainly did that and no one will forget you. Sara, you stayed k&k until the very end. So much untapped talent and potential and love. May angels lead you in. NBLB. BSC. BBs.
