The Return of Vitality

Oct 14, 2007 15:41

Last night I went to dinner at Houlihan's with Vanessa, Chris, Courtney, Stepheny, and Jacob. They have these flavored long islands there, and I ended up trying a peach one and it came out in this huge pitcher with a straw in it! lol. It was yummy though, and had a kick to it. After a while we decided to move the party downtown and we went to Zinc Bar first to meet up with Steve and Matt. Jill then stopped by and joined our party, and I found out that she's going to go to Vegas with us as well. That means that nearly one-third of our pharmacy class will be in Vegas and it will be a blast. She's not even interviewing, she's just going to party and enjoy the nightlife with her pharmacy friends (and get out of a few days of her December rotation too!) She made me promise to go to the clubs with her there, so it looks like I'll get to experience all that Vegas has to offer.

Anyway, we then headed over to Wall Street and got in for free -- friends with connections are a wonderful thing. Wall Street is great for people watching, and all sorts of people pass through there to enjoy the assortment of bars. The weather was perfect; it's so nice that it's finally starting to get cool at night and not remain continually hot and muggy. Sheila and her friend met up with us there later on, and she is so fun to hang out with. It's amazing how I only worked with her at Walgreens for 3 days last month, and we act like we've known each other for years. They actually left the other girls they came downtown with due to the usual yet unexplainable phenomenon of girls always disliking other girls, and so I ended up driving them home to their car in Avalon since it's on our way home anyway.

I know I said this earlier, but it feels so good to be able to go out with my friends on a regular basis nowadays. Drastically reducing my social life during previous rotations was really beginning to take its toll on me. Plus, I was still feeling pretty low about the break-up and didn't like going out and enjoying life, so I would oftentimes stay at home and mope despite people's efforts. Fortunately that period of my life is completely over, and it's nice having my life back to do with as I please. The past is the past, and I don't pine for it anymore. I can finally appreciate the single life again, and it's good. I want to thank all of my friends for always being there for me and supporting me.

And now I will end the sappiness before it turns sickeningly maudlin.
