My dearest Cenil,
I feel that June is always one of the busiest months of the year. Recital, dance performance, and graduation.
But I want to take a moment to say that I am grateful and feel so relieved this month. Your dance recital usually ends pretty late. In the past, we had to wait for buses and got home very late. So, I made a goal and a plan to purchase a car this month so that you do not have to wait for a bus or taxi after a late recital.
I am super happy that I was able to achieve that goal (Yes, I passed my driving test too on the first attempt!). We named our first car Takoyaki.
For the first time, you performed four dances this year, and you nailed all of them.
This month, you also said goodbye to Q300. It was bittersweet. Although it was a short stay, I am sure it was memorable. You made new friends, learned new skills, and your personality has grown so much.
You learned about self-awareness by putting together a presentation for a student-led conference, won first place in the Coca-Cola project, attended your first UN Conference, learned Capoeira, and baked donuts to raise money for the homeless. Of course, not everything worked the way we wanted, but I am sure looking back; you would see your experience at Q300 as one of the most valuable lessons you could ever learn.
Please stay curious, persistent, and resourceful.
I love you!
Bunda Cetot
