If reading my story has revealed anything about me to you all so far, it's the fact that I often look back on the many memories that have coated my life to this very day. I don't do it because I'm some depressed, heartbroken woman who has no means of looking forward to the future -although, that can be debatable at times- but rather because I actually like remembering the moments that have made me laugh, cry, shout, sing, dance, scheme, dream, etc.
To me, memories will always be special -no matter how happy or sad they might've made me at the time- because sometimes we laugh by remembering the days we cried. And we cry remembering the days we laughed. That's life for you...
And the day I graduated college with my best friend -with all of our family there to cheer us on- just so happens to be one of those many memories...the week that followed, however, had simply just been the cherry on top to one epic month.
~Flashback Continued~
~Monday, June 19, 2020 – The Graduation Present~
Me: Just wanted to let you know that we're boarding. Already talked to Mom ❤️
The Linc to My Fish 💯✊🏼🤞🏼❤️: Yeah, I just got off the phone with her. You know she still can't believe her 'little girl' graduated? Then again, I'm quite surprised myself. Who knew you had it in you?
Me: Ha ha, good one 🙄
The Linc to My Fish 💯✊🏼🤞🏼❤️: 😂😂😂
The Linc to My Fish 💯✊🏼🤞🏼❤️: You know I'm just messing with you. I think my loud cheering proved how much I'm proud 😂❤️
Me: Omg, I still can't believe you all brought customized foam fingers with mine and Kelsey's faces on them 😂🤦🏻♀️
The Linc to My Fish 💯✊🏼🤞🏼❤️: Please, you and I both know that nothing less was expected of us. It was only a matter of time before we started singing Kelly Clarkson's 'Breakaway' 😂
Me: Not going to lie, the fact that you and Jason managed to get the whole crowd singing along was pretty epic...that's the only reason Kelsey and I decided to forgive you guys for the embarrassing moment 😂
The Linc to My Fish 💯✊🏼🤞🏼❤️: Hey, it's not like we were the only ones in on it...you seem to be forgetting the fact that the gang wanted to bring fireworks, while the boyfriends were dead set on renting a fucking elephant.
Me: Yup, that sure as hell sounds like them.
The Linc to My Fish 💯✊🏼🤞🏼❤️: I'll be honest, though, I totally would've chipped in for that had the parents not figured us out 😂
I can't help but chuckle to myself. Whoever decided that it'd be a good idea to leave Luca, Jason, Ace, Hayden and the entire gang alone together -even if it was for only just a few hours before the ceremony- clearly wasn't thinking straight at the time.
Their idea of a graduation present, on the other hand...
Me: Let's just say that this Brazilian trip that you all chipped in for saved your asses 😂❤️
Jokes aside, though, Kelsey and I really are two lucky girls. And although our brothers and their girlfriends won't be able to join us, at least the gang, Ace, Hayden, Riley and Dylan will be tagging along. This is bound to be one epic trip, no doubt!
