This year was worlds better than last year simply because I chose to celebrate it with my neighbors (who have really become my family here) and their entire extended family, which is a hilarious and wonderful group of people. 
Mwaka huu ulikuwa ulimwengu mzuri zaidi kuliko mwaka jana kwa sababu tu nilichagua kusherekea na majirani zangu (ambao kwa kweli wamekuwa familia yangu hapa) na familia yao kubwa, ambayo ni ya watu wenye bashasha na wa ajabu sana.
