"When I was younger, I really thought I hated my mom. As I got older, I realized how much she sacrificed for me and my brother. Lately whenever I’ve been homesick, I call and she genuinely sounds worried. I told her I haven’t been eating well and then the next thing she tells me is that she’s going to cook tons of food and put it in Tupperware for me. I didn’t realize I would miss her so much." - Lan Ejiri, Junior
