Eat, Drink, Friends

I had so much fun getting together with my pledge sisters last night. For those of you unfamiliar with pledge sisters, they are the girls that you pledged with for a sorority. Basically, in order to join a sorority, you must go through weeks of "torture" which causes you to bond together. You become so close that you are sisters for life. My pledge class, Beta Nus, are definitely the bomb. They are some of my best friends and are always there for me. Let's just say that saying that they are my "sisters" is not an exaggeration.

Since I moved to my new place, no one has really visited me. We gathered in my dining room to drink some wine, eat dinner, and just chit chat for hours on end. The only slight problem is that I haven't drank in months, no years, that I have absolutely no tolerance. I plan on fixing that soon. =)

Last night was like the good old days in college when we would gather around the table and talk about anything for hours. Even when we don't see each other very often, we are always able to pick up right where we left off. There is not much that we can't talk about, and never really an awkward silence.

In a way, they are my blanket that shields me from a fall. It sounds really sappy right??? It's true though. Last night was about catching up with great friends, and for me, it was also about appreciating the friends that I have. Thanks girls!!
