"Shoot!"
Here I am in the states, and it has almost been one and a half year. With no doubt, friends come and go out of my life here. However, there are some friendships which stay forever in my heart. My friendship with L is one of those friendships. We have different personalities, tastes, hobbies, interests, majors, studying habits...and yes virtually in everything. But, we get along real well. We are the yin and yang in Mount Carmel. Au contraire! We think that this is why we get along so well together.
I still remember the first time we met. L was the one who told me everything about 3rd st. From choosing my bedroom to where I could put my belongings in the bathroom. My first impression was L would be easy to click with. It turned out to be true. Sometimes, I felt that it is destiny that I met her here in the right time and the right place. Last summer, she had the thought of not coming back to Mount Carmel but to stay in New Jersey. However, she came back. Fate brought us to be house mates.
Technically, I stay with L for three semesters. It is my pleasure to stay with L. We had a lot of fun. From bliss nights and movie nights. We did everything we could just to have some fun in this lifeless and boring town. L is the one who would do anything just to save money and yet I am the one who spend on everything I have. She is the one who could help me to control my spendings. Thanks to her, I am more aware of my reckless shopping habits.
She is the one I would harassed whenever I need to make some noise in the apartment. She is my listener and my shopping buddy. We share gossips every now and then. Most importantly, she is guileless and forthright in giving her opinions and advice to me.
L introduced this snack to me in which she claimed to
call boopies. It has chocolate cake with marshmallow on
the inside and coconut grates on the outside.
Her favorite fruit, coconut.
We will be attending the same university after we graduate from Wabash Valley College. Is it a coincidence?
Fate does all the work.
"We need to buy a refrigerator and a microwave for our dorm."
"Okay. By the way, why we think about that so soon? We haven't even graduate yet."
"Sushi."
Smile. Love. Persevere.
