“Just breathe, just relax, it’ll be ok”. Have you ever felt this way? We sure have. It was on our 1st day of classes here in the course, and you may think it was easy, but you’re totally wrong! During the endless hours we’ve spent in room 18, socializing was difficult, and the rough year of 2021 didn’t make it easier.

We (Felipe and Nana) have been together since then. So many teachers we’ve had! Mayara, Miss Ju, Teresa… and now Izabel! Nana’s hairstyles have also been accompanying us, Felipe’s Morocco’s shirt might have been present in class more times than himself, and our discussions have gone above and beyond any preposition or adverb. BTS, Taylor Swift, Coldplay, TXT, Twice, Stray Kids, concerts, life experiences, UNO matches, Worst Case Scenario… That’s why ”Cheetahs” is so special, although there are only 2 students.

Taylor Swift would say: “I know that it’s over, I don’t need your closure, your closure”. But, unexpectedly, I’ll have to disagree with this artist, this goddess, because we do need closure – sorry Taylor. Forevermore, we’ll remember the memories we collected here, from 8 to 10, every Tuesday and Thursday. What we built in this room (not 18 anymore), is an invisible string of love and remembrance.
