Visiting An Old Friend
Written by Sheryce Butkowski on February 8th, 2009So I know that you guys have heard me talk about my room mates Katja and Katie. They have been such a huge part of my life since I’ve been here at Covenant. They came into my life year when I moved in with them and two other girls. If you go back to some of my posts from freshman year you will find all of our adventures we went on. From birthday celebrations to camping out. I remember at the end of our freshman year all five of us girls crying as we said goodbye for summer break. We knew it just would never be the same. And it hasn’t been. Last year two of us five girls left Covenant, one got married this summer, and we have all changed in so many different ways. However, we still share a bond from our freshman year that has yet to have been erased. Katja, Katie and I now live in the exact room that we lived in our freshman year. A room that holds so many memories, and is constantly being filled with new memories. Our visits with the two room mates that left freshman year are very few, but oh so special.
This weekend Katja, Katie, and I took a road trip to see Jackie one of the old room mates. We missed out on Covenant’s 80’s skate night, which you should check out some of the other Covenant student blogs and see if they wrote anything on it because I heard it was awesome! So anyways, we left right after classes on Friday night and traveled to Alabama. It’s funny because no matter how long it’s been since we’ve seen each other we always get to pick up right where we left off. We went out to dinner and then went back to Jackie’s house to hang out. It wasn’t long before we had the chocolate out and we were having girl talk. We ended the night cuddled up watching a chick flick. The next day we spent outside. It was such an amazingly beautiful day!! We went out on a boat on the pond in front of Jackie’s house and we went to an outdoor shopping center and walked around. We stayed there until after dinner and then headed back to campus. It was so much fun! Man I miss those freshman days!

Hey! I remember that picture!
