Through the Eyes and Mind of Andie B.F.

Andie is at university in Ontario this year after spending a year with us in the School of Leadership, 07/08 year. As well as doing the high school tour and the semester in Mexico, Andie has been on 2 Hero Holidays to the Dominican Republic. And I miss her. I don’t know how anybody can meet Andie and not have her tucked away in some special corner of their heart when she is not with them. She is smart, funny, caring and a complete and total nut.

This is an entry in Andie’s journal when she was with the School of Leadership in Mexico.

I’ll never forget:

The pain of the sunburn I got from giving too much attention to the ocean

The little girl that touched my eyelashes

How beautiful I felt hanging laundry

The family dinner we spent hours slaving over

Waking up smiling

The endless attempts at balloon animals

The fearful respect for the ocean

Doing yoga in the sunlight

My friend Roberto

The boy who saw the world through his sister

Feeling completely helpless

Feeling enveloped in love
