Confucius said: 「有朋自遠方來，不亦樂乎？*」 I cannot agree more.
I spent part of today with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
radicalteacher and the other part with akaisakura. We were all from WWP once, but none of us lives here anymore (which makes us all 自遠方來, *g*). I haven't seen either of them in years—five? six? more? It's been long. It's hard to get together on a regular basis when I live halfway across the country from one, and halfway across the world from the other. I wish I had time to get together with ee970 too. It's too bad the timing didn't work out. *sends Erin a virtual hug*
radicalteacher and I were fellow yearbook editors and co-Senior One Act directors, among other things like knowing each other all the way back in middle school—I think we were in the same team for both seventh and eighth grade. Today, we went to PJ's Pancake House in downtown Princeton. I suppose it's only natural for two graduate students to gravitate toward a campus setting when looking for a place to hang out. That, and there really isn't much to do in WWP :p It was really cool to catch up on what's been going in radicalteacher's life, and to also find out what some of our mutual school friends are up to seven years after graduation.
akaisakura is one of my best friends in high school. So it was really cool when I found out that we would both be in town today. I spent the afternoon cleaning up stuff in her aunt's house's basement. It was amusing how many common memories were dug up in the boxes and boxes of stuff, things like a copy of Rutter's Gloria with ee970's comments in it, akaisakura's necklace of a toilet (complete with a person sitting on said toilet), and her AP English version of crack!Faust. The basement was in disarray after we finished digging through all the boxes. Let's hope that everything will magically fit into akaisakura's tiny Japanese apartment somehow.
And here's my free advertisement of LJ for the day: I'm glad I have an LJ account, or else I'd never have been able to reconnect with specific friends from high school and college. I'm glad I went against the current among my circle of friends and devoted more time to LJ than to Xanga.

radicalteacher and akaisakura, I miss you already!
