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
Benito Garcia
Aw, i miss andie
i love this girl.
I remember feeling all of these things .. if only we could go back! I love you and miss you a lot … SOL 07-08
