All you really need is Friends

This past week was an emotional time for alot of my best friends. With out getting into too much personal information my friends all had a rough week.  On sat night Margaret, Maren  and I made some homemade pizzas and were hanging out.  Our friend Quint showed up after being in Chicago(Hinsdale) for his Grandpas funeral and we could not of been more excited to see him.  Maren actually surprised him and it was the one of the best surprises I have ever seen.  Probably because almost every surprise I have ever tried to pull off never has quite worked out the way I planned it in my head (Ashley Palm in S.C., Billy at his rest.) but anyways it was adorable. Quint was so thankful to be with us and while thanking us all of us girls starting crying...well maybe that was just me.  But while crying I came to the realization that no matter how much life sux at times when you are with your best friends it just seems that much more bitter sweet. We were all hugging and I just started balling. I love having friends that at any time of the day will come out from the wood works and be there for you. I have always thought that line "be there for you" was cliche but I do not know any other way to put it.  It was one of those moments I will always remember.  I was just being a friend at that moment to someone who has always be such a great friend to me.  I put that moment up there with the one I had this past summer.  I was in the car  driving to Panera in Auburn with Maren and some other castle girls while we listened to Rascal Flatts and all hysterically crying..cuz i quote the one line from the song MY WISH~that reminds me of college all the time.  It is "and when you're out there getting where you;re getting to I hope you know somebody loves you and wants the same things too"  I think that line sums up college and how important it is to know that sometimes the best thing you can do is let your friends be a shoulder to lean on and know that there are people out there wishing the best for you!
