Just when I thought I wouldn't have much to blog about today, I got another compliment via facebook after my workout. In honor of President's Day, one of my best friends from college (Brandon) dedicated a post to me and 2 of my other close friends, saying the following:
About this time four years ago, I was just returning home from one of the best weekends of my life. Thanks for the great memories JJ, Laura, and Shannee...and Kate Winslet ;-)
Though we all used to be inseparable at one time in college, we rarely talk now, for various innocent reasons. (Shannee is married in Missouri, Brandon is in Illinois, JJ is married in Washington, and I'm in Florida.) Still, they once formed one of the most tightly knit group of people I have ever been part of.
In honor of President's Day weekend, we took a roadtrip from Wheaton to Champaign to spend 4 days together at my house. We had a hilarious, unforgettable weekend. One of the highlights was filming a Titanic music video (lol) wherein JJ made a soulful Celine Dion, Brandon made a sizzling hot Kate Winslet, and Shannee made an adorable Leonardo DiCaprio. Oh, and I was the floutist. (And I still cherish all the still pictures we took that weekend.)
Anyway, here's to 3 great people who helped formed a very positive part of my college (and life) experience. Honorable mention of that group goes to Katie C. who unfortunately wasn't there that weekend :(
sadly...we'll never have a picture of Brandon crawling on the pool table in a sheet...
ReplyDeleteLOL while posting these pics, I remember regretting the same thing.
ReplyDeletedo we still have the bits and pieces of those videos for a potential embrassing remake someday? :)
