I started my new term at university today and despite being optimistic, I went home feeling bitterly jealous of my fellow peers. One Egyptian girl (who looks pure Somali lol) spent her entire summer back “home” with her family in Aswan, a Turkish boy went back to Turkey and a Portuguese girl returned from her hometown in Portugal only last week.
I, meanwhile, spent my summer in a foreign country (although I will admit, Istanbul was beautiful!)
It annoys me so much how everyone I know jets off to their home countries every year. My family have never went to Somalia as the flight is so damn expensive and Mogadishu is so dangerous (my dads sister called him today saying there was yet another explosion).
At this rate, my intense jealousy will land me a one way ticket to hell
