3s company~ but 4s a PaRtY

Chicago... otherwise known as Chi-town.
Arrived here Monday evening after a nice 50 minute delay while our plane sat on a runway for no known reasons (perhaps the pilot was attempting to sober up before flight??) Yet upon arrival~ the great times began!! From risking of lives (as one friend sprinted up the down escelator to meet me in mid-descent) to laughing so hard water definetly guisered out of my mouth.

It is a reunion with my closest gal pals from uni. Yep, my sisters from another mother. Upon arrival at this house (which is much more like a mansion- complete with an intercom system throughout the house, 5 full baths, n so much more i cant even explain -like every member of the family has their own computer, including the 7 yr old...) One of our posse is staying with this family while she is doing her internship in the city; not.too.shabby. and the family is gone on a vacation (again) and another one of 'us' just got a job about 2hrs away, so it was a perfect excuse for a re-uniting! We made an amazing greek type salad, slushy type drinks, some garlic bread, prepared the exceptional patio, and had a 'family' dinner on the veranda. ah-mazing times. cant believe how natural it is to be together (although, as the time has grown- i have been able to spot several areas where i can now see a change in myself, and slight alterations in our friendship) yet the 'picking up where we left off' (which i think that cliche has never been stated accurately; wouldnt it be more appropraite to say "picking up where we let down"?...) regardless, it was 4 sure no problem~~ although they did have several questions for me bout the trip that I just hadnt gotten form ya know, my mom... or brother... like, those type of questions only your best gurls can ask ;)
We had a long night~ enjoying both the hot tub and amazing pool, brownie sundaes (mmmmmm) and the perfect way to end any gurl night? nope..not with a chic flick! -rather... Disney's High School Musical! lol...so fun (funny perhaps.. like that we actually watched it, and found enjoyment in doing so..)

And after bout 3.5 hrs of sleep~ i awoke to music being played through the intercom system servicing as my alarm... we were out the door shortly after to roadtrip round to begin the search of apartments. Surprising how sleeping in an enormous master bedroom- in the unbelievable master bed can make you feel rather rested regardless :)


(Our group~ although at the last minute Justyn had to cancel... "oh-man"--- Ash-wee, Court-knee, me, and Sarah-bear-ah)

I wish I had pictures from this weekend to show you... or the space to expound upon our many adventures... jus know that it has been sooo great to be around peers again, and to truly laugh...

(Grad day... one of those times when you know nothing will ever be the same again...)

We didnt actually 'go' to any displays, but as we were driving home with our dinners tonight we got to see about 5 different shows all around us~ it was pretty sweet, and theres actually still some speratic ones going off now; but 4 me, after working at Disney, and being able to see their fireworks everynight (sometimes twice a night) for months- you get a lil spoiled, ya know? ;)
i do love a good night layin out watching some boom-booms tho :)

Sounds like fun, I noticed you got a chance to be like me with only 3.5 hrs of sleep. I get a little more. Fire works are great, they need to be enjoyed with friends.
