This post is just a lil personal something for my dear friend Delmar. Altho I am so far away from you, and sometimes I feel like we barely communicate (cuz we didn't until recently) I just want to take a sec to reflect on what was a very special friendship for me......Here we go
I just got back from my study abroad in Japan and it was my senior year. I was slim, trim, and oh so fab, and I was determined to make my senior year my best one ever. In comes Delmar. A sophomore light skinned cutey who was almost as fab and I. He was my RA......We hit it off pretty quick, prob cuz I kept harrassin him with my problems and knockin on his door. Man, Delmar, you were one of my best friends, and you really made my senior year the best it could be. I never really told you how much your friendship meant to me, but it did, and it does.
If you are still reading this far, I suppose this is just to honor such a good friend, cuz they are few and far between. Often we take things for granted, and never realize a good thing when its in our face. So this post is just to recognize not only a good person, but an awesome friend. If you have someone like that, please just give them a shout out, or a thank you!
So a few short stories about this delmar cat. He swear he the coolest kid on the block. And frankly he is. I found myself jealous of his popularity at times. He is just so cool, that he knew everyone and everyone liked him. I wish I could be that outgoing at times, but those who know me know that I need to get comfy with folks before I open up to them. But Delmar, def one of the cool kids.
I remember when my mom helped me buy a car (ok, you could basically say she bought it). It was in NY in the shop, and I was in school in OH. It was ready and I had to fly to NY and was plannin on driving 8 hours to OH over the weekend. Some idiot got my hopes up and said he wanted to come, but at the last min cancelled cuz his moms was like nah you cant go. So Delmar, being the good friend he is, jumped on the band wagon and got a ticket to NY (which I paid half for come to think of it). We partied in The Village were the sweet meat hangs out with my sis. We drank ate, and had a good time.
And I cant forget the countless times I came to his room asking stupid guy questions, or complaining about my love life. I was one of the hottest chicks on campus (if not the hottest) and i had dudes (and chicks) all over me. Naturally I had a few probs and Del was always there to help and vice versa. My most fondest memories of Del tho, were when we were talkin bout fashion, schemin on ways to get to the mall, or buy new clothes, or puttin on mini fashion shows in his room.
Then we really stepped our game up and hosted a charity event on campus. I mean we was straight legit. We did a lil dance performance in the beginning, outfit changes, funny skits. I mean we was better than the damn MTV awards. We rehearsed in his room plenty of times, tryna make our skits hilarious. We pulled it off too.
So Del, you better be reading this. This is just a lil something to let you know how I feel. I truly do love you. When we were together, we were a damn riot. You always had me laughing. You is cool as a fan, and such a good person. I truly did appreciate the time we spent together my senior year, cuz they were some of my best. Well anyway, im in Europe now, and you are all the way in the states, and I keep having the damnest feeling like we will lose contact. But if that happens, I just want you to know that I do love you.
Oh, and that night we partied like rock stars with ben and marcy.....hahahahaha *never forgotten*
Oh and gossipin about other folks......pics to follow
