never regret

people say they never regret...

i like to THINK i dont regret things...that i learn from every experience
but lately i have been doubting that with my college choice.
daily iam reminded that i am not in a job that i earned with my degree...
and i still have $32,000 worth of loans to pay for it!
annoying!

but i think i was just reminded why i should not regret my 4 years at MNU
her name is Katelyn Luann Spielman, to me she is LU
we have gone on so many adventures together and i love her to death.
we were inseparable before our freshman year even started.
we met in the most awkward way, but thats us!

here is the story of us - 
as i was sitting in my dorm room during Soar (college orientation) waiting for my roommate to show up, this random girl shows up in my room talking on the phone, and asks if the thermostat is in my room.
"are you kidding me" - iam thinking.  i have been in this stupid room for 30 minutes and i have no idea.
so i look around a little bit and do not find it!  so i tell her no.
she insists that her friend told her it was in the end room and it has to be here, she is flamin hot and insists it be turn down!
at this point iam sure we exchanged names or something.
and she goes on her way.

later that evening i found the thermostat :)

from then on we were talking all the time. and were so excited when we found out our rooms were going to be across the hall from eachother!!

unless proven otherwise, this is our first picture together. 

NYC 2007

At this point, this is what our relationship looked like...we met at SOAR (which was 3 days long), i texted her so much afterwards that she was forced to get a texting plan (my bad)

the next set of pictures are from our freshman year of college, first semester.

we go shopping together
we go to football together
we eat out together

  NOW..those adventures look pretty boring right?  WELL trust me...they get better

we relax on the mall together

we take walks together

we store our sticks together
we have inside jokes together

 we worship together
we are scared together

End freshman year...
On to sophomore year..

we go to football together

we go to firestations together

we meet bands together
4) we break into their dressing rooms together

we go to iowa together

we go to another concert together

we drive to Wichita to go to another concert together

we travel together
(after sophomore year we both went on Youth in mission, her to Vancouver, me to Rwanda. Her parents drove us to El Paso Texas)

 End Sophomore year!
Junior year...

we get pretty together

 

 

 

we go to events together

 end junior year..(clearly through the years i get worse at taking pictures)
and on...

we act weird together
we get dressed together
we share important days
we have fun with friends together

I know that was ALOT of pictures...but really i have more...and there is SO much more we do/did together that is not in pictures.
---we make up ridiculous games together
---we share secrets together
---we have a bond with alex that no one else will ever understand
---we are PERFECT for eachother
---we love chapala...but only if we are together

basically i love her to death and am so glad that she is my friend, forever!
so i think i can very easily say, i do not regret MNU, because i met one of the most amazing people in the entire world.
