About two weeks ago was Sandra's birthday and then that weekend was her birthday party! yay!! The theme was rockstar and so we all dressed up for it. I was Angus Young, Sandra was Lady Gaga (jealous!!!), Amanda was Courtney Love, Jennifer was Katy Perry and Amber was Amy Winehouse.
Thanks to Amanda, Jenn and myself we all made Sandra's cake! A pink/purple/white fondant cake with stars and an albino squirrel on it. I've never been so frustrated in my life but we managed at the end. I didn't get a full picture of it since I did not have a camera at the time, but you can trust in me when I say that it was really pretty and tasty.
As the night progressed and the place continued to get more and more packed I realized that it doesn't really matter where you are or what you do, but what counts the most is who you're with. A party with my friends in Buda, Austin, or Tennessee is all the same to me because I'm surrounded by who makes me happy and who I love. For better for worse they stick around. I'm not saying it's always smiles and cheeriness, we argue and yell a lot but that's part of what growing up is. You can't fully love a person unless you've discovered the good and bad in them and still accept them. It's like my puppy. I love Dobie, and he bites people and growls at them and scares ex boyfriends away but I still love him. Even when he's gone through 3 pairs of shoes.
As the night ended for me and I was about to head back home Sandra, Amanda, Jennifer, myself and Amber were all saying goodbye and birthday girl was telling us how happy she was with how's life turned out and how we're all friends. Amber, Sandra's roommate, told me we both went to the same school and I automatically assumed it was my first high school. No...... we graduated together. I just never met her. I kinda liked it though. There are people who are so close to you in your life and your everyday routine and you never notice them, but when the time's right that's when they stumble upon and you finally meet them and get to know them. If we would have met in high school I probably wouldn't have really talked to her. Senior year of high school was a blur and now I have my life put together. So tada!
Same goes with Miss Sandra. If I would have actually been introduced to her like two years ago, I probably wouldn't have been given the opportunity or chance to actually get to know her and see what a great friend she could be and is. I met her through Amanda and the timing was perfect and even though she doesn't live near me, she's gotten to know me and vice versa. You can't just sit around and mope about what you don't have in life; when it's supposed to happen and the timing is right, then it will happen. Kinda like true love. Those stories you hear about people who magically met on a vacation trip and would have never, ever, EVER met if it wouldn't have been for that trip, well there you go. It was supposed to happen so it did happen.
