At the dorm


This is Hannah, a lovely young women, grade 9 student at BFA and a resident of Palmgarten dorm. She is an amazing artist, as you can see. I have spent many, many hours with Hannah working on homework and just hanging out with her. She has quite an interesting past: born in the Congo; at the age of 9 months evacuated with her parents and 3 older brothers taking only 1 suitcase with them; lived 9 years in Belgium; her parents and younger sister are now in France and Hannah is in her 3rd year at BFA. A typical MK!

We spend our Thursday evenings at the dorm, subbing for the dorm parents who get the day off. We enjoy our time there so much, getting to know the girls, and doing what we can to help out the RAs.
