So last night was a lot of fun. It was the first time that I have hung out with people from work, and I had a blast. We had a Harry Potter party and made Pina Coladas that were really yummy. I was excited that everyone came who did.
It was cool that Katie came even though she had other plans. That really meant a lot to me. It makes me sad to think that in a couple of months she will no longer be here in Greeley. As I have gotten to know her better over this past year, I have realized that she is a definite treasure. She is full of spunk and can often make me laugh and cheer me up, even when I am feeling down. She always seems to have a grasp on what I am going through, whether it be good or bad, and always does the right thing in order to enjoy the moment, or make me feel better. I have really come to value our friendship and I sincerely hope that it will continue even after she graduates.
I have decided that Zach is a really great kid, and I am looking forward to continuing our newly found friendship. In the few short months that I have gotten to know him, he has been more of a friend to me than some people I have know for years. He is definitely one who is dedicated and who will be there if you ever need support. Not to mention his ability to make those around him laugh. I am thankful that God brought him into my life.
Kayleigh and Nichole are also two wonderful women who have been brought into my life this past year. I have not gotten to know them as well as some others, but I think that our friendship can only go up from here. It was good to hang out with both of them last night and get to see a side of them I have not had the chance to see since we are always working together and not playing!
Finally, a reflection on an old friend in whom I have found a new friendship.
Over the past couple of weeks Josh and I have connected on a level that we have never connected on before. I'm not sure exactly what did it, but something has brought us together to this point where we both seem to understand each other and communicate with an ease that we have never experienced before. I have come to realize fully what I think I already knew, that Josh is a real, true and devoted friend. No matter what I have to say, he is there supporting me and encouraging me. These past couple of weeks I have been a bit more down than I have I felt in a while and Josh has been a major part of what has kept me going. He is always there with a friendly word, knowing exactly what to say to get me through whatever troubles the days might bring. Not many months ago I never thought that Josh and I could grow so close, so quickly. But it has happened, and I am sincerely grateful. I am so glad that we have taken our friendship to a new level. He is a great guy and I am so glad I have him as a friend.
