Had a really lovely night. Group dinner for an old friend who moved away a couple of years ago, and he came back up for Easter so we all got together. It was the same people, the same group, as in 'the old times'. A time before schoolwork was either our sole devotion or the bane of our life, when our time was so much less consumed by worry and stress. There was less pressure, more elbow room in our minds. Now we cram facts and figures, we learn all we can only to forget it, we do everything we can to be what we are told is best for us. It was a great feeling to just sit down with that group and share some old jokes and memories, and laugh, and dance, and just chill out and enjoy the company of others. Sit on the bench outside and not care who you're leaning on or sitting beside, or whose sitting on you, to share everyone's dessert without being concerned about germs, to just be young and free and alive. Pretty great vibe for the night overall :)
These are the retro-gorgeous moments that we'll remember. We might not remember the joke, but we'll sure as hell remember laughing. We might not remember what we wore or said or did in exact detail, but you can't lose that feeling of familiarity that comes only from knowing and trusting people. It's a good feeling, a really good feeling, and I was grateful for it tonight :)
Grateful to have gotten one out of the four required dances choreographed today. From what I can presume, I'm going to be a busy little bee til the holidays [and dance exams!] are over!
But don't worry, loves. I'll still be here every evening :)
Much love and good things and silliness to youuu!
