ya know those simple things in life that make you happy?
a random person giving you a complement.
realizing something's on sale upon checkout.
getting a funny text from a friend.
well one of the little things that i love are rainy sundays. i just find something so satisfying about waking up on a sunday morning to see the room filled with that gloomish lighting and hear the sound of raindrops falling off the trees. monday mornings, it doesn't have the same affect. saturday's, nope. only on sundays. maybe that's because sunday has been classified as my lazy day.
well today i woke up to that wonderful feeling. i then went to atlanta with brittany and neelam to visit grace at ga state. going to atlanta is always quite the experience. it's only about 20 minutes away, which is nice. there are some things in life that i think will always stay the same. one of those being brittany freaking out in atl. she loves the homeless people ;) i always laugh when i see that we enter a sketch area and i immediately hear the car door lock. and it's funny too because neelam is probably the complete opposite and will carry on long conversations with the homeless people.
the highlight of the trip though had to be when we entered greek village. there's a gate and visitors have to show their visitor pass to the security guard. neelam holds her visitor pass and puts her arm through the gate so that the security guard could see it. she then pulls her hand out of the gate and backs up, then immediately she reaches to show the guard her pass again because she thought he didn't see it. just as she moves forward to show him again, he hits the button to open the automatic gate. the metal gate swings straight towards neelam's head and BANG. contact made. and i don't mean this gate lightly hit her. i'm talking about a full on collision almost knocking neelam off her feet. the guard ran out of his office to make sure neelam was okay. brittany and i were on the ground laughing so hard. and neelam just stood in shock about what had just happened. once we finally got through the gate and regained our composure, we looked at neelam's head. yup, she indeed had a huge welt on her head. probably the size of an egg! we got her an ice pack and all was well. she took it like a champ. but just thinking about it all again i can't stop laughing. like i said, atlanta is always quite the experience.
that was the last time the four of us will be together until the end of december :( goodbye's are never fun. wish i could just pack them all in my suitcase.
