Just like ol' times...

Topic of the day: A little weekend reunion

 

The last time that I saw Keith, aka Short Shit, was almost exactly a year ago.  Since his graduation from IU, Stephanie and I have missed him very much, always reminiscing about good times and wishing he was with us.

 

To our great excitement, Little One made a last minute decision to come to Beijing (from Hong Kong) this weekend!  He originally came to see another friend, but then gained some consciense and decided to spend most of his time with Steprincess and I.  Thus, I had my first guest at my apartment this (well, technically two guests, including Steph).  

 

It was great seeing Keith again.  He put on a few pounds (mostly muscle weight), but was still the same old Keith.  For most of the weekend, either Steph or I hung out with Keith when we were not all together.  Even though a year has passed since the three of us all hung out together, it still feels just like yesterday - so much has changed, yet so little.  It really reminds me of the recurring quote in  One Hundred Years of Solitude, something that Ursula said to the effects of how time has passed, but not really.  As well, it's very odd that after a year of separation, we all meet again on the opposite side of the world. 

 

The weekend brought back many memories of our senior year at uni - random trips to the lakes, midnight walks through the cemetery, climbing through Stephanie's balcony window in hopes of trying to scare Lala...and just good old hanging out. 

 

Because we're all very different people, especially me compared with the two of them (they're Kelly brats, what can I say ;-) ), it's very odd how we have all become such good friends and maintained our friendship.  But I dare say that it's a very good stroke of luck on all our parts for I know that my last years of uni would not have been that memorable had it not been for Kimchi and Short Shit.  :)
