The weekend was fabulous. Lots of great things happening. I got to go back to Lawrence for the basketball game and all the festivities that accompanied. It was like a mini homecoming, what with everyone still in school returning for the semester, and since it's a long weekend lots of my out of town graduated friends made an appearance. I was in my ELEMENT. I love Lawrence, and since graduation it has not felt as much as "home" as it used to. This weekend it felt just like home and I loved it.
I love a good reunion. Especially the ones that happen when you share a big experience with people and you come together with them long after it has ended and reminisce on your good times. I love it when the other members of the experience are just as excited about it as me, because I sometimes think in my own brain that I cling too tightly to those memories and other people don't treasure stuff as much as I do because I have an overly romanticized brain and live in a fantasy world. Well this weekend I was pleasantly surprised by these fools:
Who you may remember from this:
The three of them put up with my psychoness for a solid year, but Rock Chalk Revue 2012 was like one of my top experiences of college. So I was ecstatic to run into all three of them in Lawrence. Once they realized we were all standing right there one of them was like OMG WE HAVE TO GET A PICTURE. I was beside myself. I love it when people get as excited about stuff as I do. It rarely happens because I'm always excited about everything. But it was a great photo, and I had a great conversation with them reminiscing on how psycho I was and how much fun we had. Just like we were back in the midst of things, back to a time that i LOVED. I also got to see lots of other friends whom I haven't seen in a while, and they're all doing fabulously. That's all I can ask for.
All in all, great weekend, great friends, great reunions. Lots of cause to celebrate and appreciate all of the good people in my life.
I'm pleased.
