Zeynep's (mis)Adventures in Ruritania

arise, oh people, let us hear your voices... your voices of freedom.

unravel

We've been here for 9 months now.

We've put our lives on hold for 9 slow passing months where nothing good has been produced. Nothing good at all.

When we got here in March, I remember thinking that we would only be here for perhaps 6 months. I never expected it to carry on until now. And the new year's approaching soon - what if we're stuck here forever? I will honestly go insane if that should happen.

When looking back at the past nine months, it's amazing what has happened given the small space we now have to feel free...

- We moved into a new house.
- We discovered exactly how a refugee camp runs.
- My mom broke her ankle.
- My friend was severely injured in a Brn bombing.
- My brother was arrested.
- My cousin returned home.
- My brother got engaged.

Let's just hope that this all ends soon. *sigh*
