Graduation

The next time I saw Kristin was at the Graduation – 6 months after I left Newcastle for the thesis in Germany and she went to London. We stayed in touch regularly, but we both had out dissertation happening and after we were sharing voice memos or chatting most of the time. I realised how much I were used to exchange with her while staying in Newcastle and therefore, I knew that she will be always part of my memories of this time. The moment, I arrived in Newcastle I was at the campus trying to find her. Unfortunately, I wan‘t lucky and found some of my course mates. I was messaging her, that I‘m at the campus and Kristin responded, that she will come to see me. She saw me earlier then I realised it, that‘s why she was running and hugging me from the back in front of my family. I knew immediately that she was it and I was so happy in that moment. It‘s crazy how much you got used to people, who are close to you almost every day for 9months and then being apart, this may fade away, but the reunion fells like you never left. That‘s also how Kristin met my family. Later, I joined her in Harry‘s at the party and the next morning, I went to the hotel to have Breakfast with Dirk and Claudi together with Kristin. That‘s how we both met eachothers close family.
