the five.

i love this time of year. all the christmas lights, the big rockefeller center tree, gingerbread men, ice-skating in central park, home cooking... it's heaven. the greatest thing about this time of year is that it brings everyone together. when i graduated high school i had 4 of the best girlfriends anyone could ask for, but unfortunately after graduation we sort of fell out of touch. we did everything together, people envied us, we were the five. i love those girls with all my heart - it was like we were meant to be friends: 2 blondes, 2 brunettes, and a red head. steph with her spongebob lunchbox and love of kanye west, heather with her obsession with the color pink and "barbie girl," munsch with her love of surf and all things hippie, mcgil with her crazy red hair and obsession with adam lazzara, and me, courtney, with my my alter ego belinda and love of all things green. looking back - all the pictures, the inside jokes, the memories - we were infinite. everyone should know friends like these girls, and hold onto them no matter what. i'm lucky enough to have a second chance to get to know the girls who helped make me who i am.
