Even though I missed the “ good old day,” I preferred life to change to bring a fresh but also unconventional wave to me. From the time in Vietnam, I learned that life would not stay the same, so it is a mandatory factor for an individual to grow up and adapt to it.

    I realized I would probably never see most of them again, especially the British counselors, many of whom had never been to America before that summer. Of course I could go back next summer if I wanted to, but it wouldn’t be the same. Everyone would be replaced with a whole new group of people that I would come to know and love then never see again.
