After reading Snoop's entry and then seeing Jello's comment I am starting to feel a bit nostalgic about the way things used to be back in day. Freshman year was just insane...a whirlwind, it felt like it was over before it started - going to Denny's every night with Nes, stories about munging (Just for the record, I really did throw up in my mouth!!!), torturing/snooping on Maria with Lolo and Nes, the 10 smoke breaks a day with Joe...Sophmore year consisted of drinking a shit ton of Coors Light with Joe and playing every claw machine in Btown with Christen and Alec. But Junior/What was supposed to be my Senior year (haha) was when things really seemed good. Yeah, I wasn't doing too hot school wise and I had to work at crappy Pizza Hut (gotta love the hut!) but I had Lolo, Jello, Mikey, Adam (pre-Kristin), Sethy, Kara, Nick...damn there are so many more people I could list, but either way I had this really amazing group of people in my life. We did nothing and everything and life really did seem simpler. Good times and great friends...we may have been stuck in the midwest (haha) but it was okay.
Don't get me wrong, I am happy where I am now. Really happy. (for the most part, lol) I have great friends here that simply make my life beautiful. I have a good job (even though I hate it...I have a job that pays decently and gives me good health insurance, I can't complain just because my crazy mom works here too!) and I've met a boy (I like him a lot)...I mean things are on track. I really wish I could find another job, mainly just because I would like to make a little (k, more than a little but I won't be picky) more money but also because if I have to hear my mother say "Good morning Daughter-o-mine" one more time I might scream.
Either way, I get that things couldn't have stayed that way forever, but they were good times and I smile every time I think about them. For some reason the memory that seems to be popping into my head right now is one of the days Mikey, Lolo and I went to her pool to swim and hang out. I think Sara and her boy were there too...but yeah, I remember turning to Mikey and saying, "I really want some watermelon right now Mikey!" and him (without skipping a beat) returning with, "Nana, I want fried chicken, damn we're black!"
It's more the people though. I miss the people. I want Lolo to move to Orlando and I want Jello here too! (Remember, I thought I was going to be able to convince Betsy to move to FL) I want Sethy here, my sherpa :) I just want to move everyone I love into a self sustaining bubble/dome environment so that we can all be together, haha!
