It was especially hard to leave because, 3 days before our flight, we met a very funny American guy. When he found out we were leaving, he was really upset))

Lisa and I were riding the subway, laughing and talking about everything under the sun as usual. I noticed a young man standing there with a bag that said NewYorkfilmacademy. I had actually visited that academy before to find out how much it costs to study acting... just out of curiosity)) And you know, I would love to study there... the atmosphere is so creative and they do such interesting projects. Sigh, maybe one day I'll be a graduate of that academy too))

I decided to ask the guy where he studies. He started telling me about the academy and his roles... how he kissed a girl on stage who was shy, and how he tried to help her get over her shyness. Imagine, we're on the subway, and he's acting out how he kisses a girl French-style... hugging the air... it was hilarious))

The little actor (as we nicknamed him) turned out to be really funny. And since I was interested in acting, we hit it off right away. He said we were crazy... Lisa and I had been told that often—about 7 people said it in just one week! But we really were a bit crazy from everything that was happening to us))

Of course, we wanted to hang out with Philip more too. As he said, he hadn't met anyone funnier than our duo))

He invited us back for next summer and said he would miss us)))
