I don't usually talk about my day to day happenings, but Saturday was such a great day that I feel it needs to be documented. In photos.
Well, Saturday I spent the day at a college where several of my friends go. Fifteen of us from camp staff met up for the afternoon.
I'm still not sure how this worked out so well, it was very spur of the moment. However, I know many of greatly needed this reunion of sorts. I know I did.
First, I stopped at the football game, and hung out with some of my most favorite friends from high school. Especially this beautiful creature. She just got the lead in Oklahoma! I'm kinda extremely proud of her. Imma buy her flowers.
Next! I headed of to the soccer game to watch the funniest boy I know dominate in a sport I once played against him in. Ah, playing on teams for sports that involve balls. What distant memories. Anyway, turns out he wasn't playing because his team was up 3 - 0. This, however, was convenient for him, because he was very eager to leave the sidelines to show me his blister as soon as he saw me arrive. Win - Win situation, I guess.
I spent much time with this particular camp friend, Clare. I love her more than I can even express in words. She's beyond wonderful, and one of the most beautiful people I am blessed to know.
After this, we went to Pizza Ranch, even though I clearly expressed my objection due to price. I was overruled. This is okay. It is delicious, I know, I am just not a $9 eater. There are pictures of this, but she has yet to upload those pictures. This is okay. Picture people sitting at a booth. Alright. Wonderful. Do any of you have Pizza Ranches around you?
When we came back, we saw a lot of dorms, smelled a lot of boys living quarters, took a lot of pictures, caught up like crazy, and ate a lot of dumdums.
What are you supposed to do in a dumdum picture? I was not quite sure. Clare wasn't either. She carries around a bag of dumdums with her. This is why I love her.
One boy we met was talking to us for a little while before I got up to head to my other friend's room. When I came back, he saw me in the hall and said something to me I didn't quite understand. I asked him to repeat himself and he said, as if surprised, "You're a little person!" Friends, how do you respond to this? I am already a socially awkward person, so trying to respond to a socially awkward comment is particularly difficult for me. I think I just mumbled some sort of a protest on how I wasn't that short and walked away.
Oh, it was a fun day. Leaving that night was a very hard thing to do. I needed to see all those familiar faces. Big colleges can become exhausting.
Now, a few matters of business:
As Paige commented for the last blog, the painter's name is Leonid Afremov. You should check him out, they're gorgeous!
Lex, I'm excited that you tagged me, and I'll answer the questions in my next blog!
Let me leave you with a blast from the past:
See you soon!
