Cheered Up

There was this one time during my sophomore year at college when I got really bummed out about something...I think it was because someone was being mean or had said something about me that wasn't nice, or something like that.

And I was sitting there all bummed out when I got a call from some my best pals...Katy, Iz, and Greg...and they whisked me away to the guys' apartment for a game of Cranium. We had an awesome night and laughed so hard, and I just kept thinking how lucky I was to have such great friends.

And what's so awesome about that memory is, I don't even remember what happened that created the need for my being cheered up in the first place. I just remember the fun night that followed and the wonderful memory of having buddies that would be so great and go to the effort to cheer me up!

I think as you get older, you appreciate your friendships so much more, because they become a little more rare and special once you're out of school. I'm so thankful for all of the friends I have, new and old, near and far away! Just thinking about them cheers me up! :)

Happy Monday!
