Tommy Palooza was definitely a night to remember. I went to bid my friend Tommy a farewell with my roommates Lauren and Jayde, and my friend Matt. (Technically Tommy and Matt are my sister Beth's friends from UF, but since she wasn't there and I've become a good friend through the years, I filled in for the farewell.)Tommy is leaving to teach English in Korea for a year, so this was an event to give a last hug and share a last drink together before his departure. Before we left and as we were saying our final goodbyes, the four of us (in the picture) gathered and sang together holding hands in a circle. Somehow this is kind of a strange recurring event with my friends and I, but it was a perfect way to end the night and say farewell.
One of my other favorite events of the night was picking oranges from a nearby orange tree grove. I've always wanted to pick oranges off the side of the road (since I've lived in FL all my life) but never had it in me to steal...but now I had my chance! Lauren and I both picked bright oranges from the top of a tree and brought them home with us to enjoy later. (Even though we had permission, it still felt mischievious! )
