Day 253: Broken Windows and Fallen Heroes
This morning Erin and I woke up pretty early to travel up to College Station for the weekend! We were staying with her sister Kaitlyn, and were looking for a good night out on the town! After grabbing some Lunch with Diane before she left to go on a retreat, we all recharged our batteries by taking a quick little nap, then headed out to hang out at Kaitlyn's friend Matt's house. Before we got there, Kaitlyn kept talking to us about how she had given Matt and his roommates a hampster, and that the boys had let him loose. The boys claimed that he had run amuck in the house for about two days, but they had finally caught him the night before. When we got the house, Kaitlyn went straight to the cage to show us the hampster. It seemed to be sleeping, so she poked it a little. We quickly found out that poor Justin Jr. was unfortunately dead. Although he had only a short life, he was very much loved. The boys decided that in order to honor the "fallen homies", it was necessary to have a funeral. So after digging a hole and having everyone put on dress jackets, we began the eulogy. Everyone had to pay their respects to Justin Jr. and everyone had to rhyme. I didn't think that a funeral could ever be funny, but I really was proved wrong. After our mourning of the dead, we all went home to eat some dinner and get spiffed up before going out for the night. We were meeting a few more friends, including my next year roommate Lauren, out on Northgate for some partying. It was some ultimate bonding - my favorite thing ever! I can't wait to come to College Station next year, Lauren and I are going to have so much fun meeting new friends and tearing up the town!
