When I met
up with Mahsa today she seemed a little down. I asked what was wrong and she
said she was feeling a little homesick for the past couple of days. I could
totally sympathize with her because I went through the same thing when I first
moved to Tallahassee. I let her try to explain herself but she kept interrupting
herself because it made her too said to talk about it. I tried to change the subject
to lighten her mood and invited her to get some coffee. She declined and we
just sat outside of CIES because she was in between classes.
Our meetings
are great and I can feel that she enjoys talking to me. Her English has
improved tremendously since the first meeting and I’m glad we met. O asked her
about life in Iran and what she liked to do on a regular sunny day and she
smiled instantly and rambled on for about 10 minutes about going to the park
and having a picnic. I told her that she can do the same things here in town
and she assured me that she does, often.
She hugged me and ran off to class.
As previously stated, I truly admire Mahsa and all that she has done thus far
and continues to do.
