I’ve had the most wonderful time with these people. It would be impossible to forget them. I look at their faces as i type and I know I’m going to miss them.. I hope i get to see them again one day. When i first came here, I didn’t know what to expect, no one did. I came to this program as an Individual, if you will, and now I’m leaving with a group of supporters. I got to connect with so many people who I wouldn’t normally approach back home. DON’T JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER. We all stereotype too much. These people are proof that not everyone fits the profile of the world’s image. I’m definitely going to miss waking up to them, it became such a routine. I LOVED IT. lol I gained so much here, I actually called it “Home” a few times. It feels good to be with my people. There are lots of memories/insiders I got to create with people like, “It’s complicated”, “Dookie Bootie”, “Dear Fabian”, and others 😀  Also some memories like locking myself out of my room THREE TIMES, Partying with the Italians, Singing in front of the Japanese, Dancing in front of everyone, Falling up the stairs, Slipping under water, Ripping out Jessica’s Tracks, Trying to save Christa from King Kong, and others. I’m really grateful for this opportunity, thank you everyone for letting me be here and welcoming me. I’ll be holding you guys in my heart on my journey, I hope you all can continue to become a part of it.

One thought on “The Final Say

  1. Very Sweet video. Thank you for sharing. I get to meet all the folks who meant so much to Kapele during his Pitzer experience through their videos; and I get to see all the stuff you guys did too. Lots of images here for me to get a good feel of your experiences. Mahalo again,
