Diana Travecedo from Colombia The thing that I really miss most is playing with my friends. We were a big group of around 15 friends or more. We usually played ball in the parking lot. As a consequence, we were reproached by our neighbors because sometimes the ball hit the cars or broke the street lights, most of the time we used to yell too loudly which disturbed them. We played everyday from about 4 p.m. to 6 or 7 p.m. After that, we went back home to take a shower, have dinner and then meet again. In the evening, we talked about many interesting topics. Sometimes we listened to music or went to one of my friends' house to watch TV or whatever. We were good friends. Therefore, we enjoyed being together. On our birthdays, we had parties and spent lots of time doing fun things. A few years later, we stopped playing because we grew up. As a result, we didn't have enough time to do things together. Some of us started college, others got married, and others moved away. For these reasons, the group started to be smaller and smaller. Sometimes we didn't see each other for a long time. Nowadays, I don't hear from them. I wish I could reunite with this group again to remember all those good times that we had in our childhood.
