My sister finally left for Germany. Her being home for two months I was awaiting for her to leave. However, the second she left and I realized my room was to myself, and that I wouldn’t be able to get in any fights with her I became saddened. It hit me ten minutes after she left. I was very shocked. I felt so scared, and I really wanted her to come back home. She was always on my mind. I didn’t even imagine this to happen.
The first phone call the family hears of her, she is refusing to unpack and hates it in Germany. When I heard this I was terrified. I didn’t know who she was with, was she alone, I didn’t know if she was safe. It was the most unexplainable subject in my life I had ever been prone to. The whole day my family was talking about it and were always teasing me Amy will have her room back. Yes that immediately came to my head, but in the sense I don’t care if she comes back. I want her to do what she wants to do. She knows the importance of earning an education in Germany, that all I wanted was for her to be happy.
Finally, orientation began and she met people. She also got her lap top hooked up. She felt a lot better. It was awesome being able to talk to her on the internet. With the whole time difference and her panic the pricey phone calls were just tedious in waiting for a call. It was so unsure. The second she hooked up to the internet everyone in my house turned happy. My parents looked at her pictures online, and my sisters and I were instant messaging her. It was a joyous experience. One where I realized how important technology is for it provides communication that could be impossible if it weren’t available for people. The internet has saved a lot of stress for my family, and it is important to be able to interact with my sister.
