The past two days in a nutshell (:  Going to the Youth Assembly at the United Nations has been amazing so far, still meeting a lot of amazing people and got the privilege of bathing in their presence when they accepted my dinner invitation.  I have the BEST and CUTEST group of delegates ever haha and i could not be more in heaven.  It's a sad yet relieved parting tomorrow as the conference comes to a close, I will miss the inspiration and walking epitomes of success that are around every corner but cherish the hours of sleep that I lost here.  What a bittersweet moment.
