You all know Nadine in some way or the other. I’ve either rambled about her in stories over skype or posted her videos and quotes on various social media plaforms. Nadine has officially filled many roles in my life: confidante, roommate, best friend. Sometimes I feel like if I think something, and I don’t say it out loud to Nadine, its almost like I didn’t think it.
Most recently, we added a new relationship to the list: colleagues! Yes, that’s right – we now work together too. In fact for the last 2 months, we both shared one desk because office space was tight. Really, the best way to illustrate our relationship would be the following story: Nadine, skyping with a friend from home, introduces me. “This is Julie. She’s…..(my friend? my roommate? my colleague?)…..She’s like my arm.”
Anyway, al muhim is that Nadine has so many wise words – I could start a whole other blog cataloguing all of them. She’s a self proclaimed sap ( “Its ok to feel.” ) and has the biggest heart of anyone I know.
And as mentioned above, girl talk is her small game. I figured I would share one of her best quotes – the one she always tosses out as we deal with the ups and downs of life abroad – relationships – work – decisions – and of course, the future.
