I went to NIU in Dekalb last weekend for my best friend Kelly's 20th birthday. Everything from the ride there, the ride back, and everything in between was lots of fun. There were a few moments throughout the night that made me a little angry, but overall I had a great time with a few of my besties! :) I went with Leslie, and we made lots of stops on the way there. She picked me up around 4ish, then we headed to El Paso to get gas, subway, and pick up something from Kelly's house that her mom wanted us to give her. Then we headed to Minonk to go to Pop's, which is a place full of all kinds of candy!! We had to take a couple of detours on the way there because of construction but we made it. Then we finally headed on our journey up to NIU. It didn't feel like it took as long as usual, but when we got there we headed up to Kelly's room and started getting ready. Leslie's sister Lauren met us up there, and she braided my hair on the side while we were all getting dazzled up. We pre-gamed in Kelly's dorm, then finally headed onto the frat AKL. Leslie brought her video camera so it was a lot of fun filming things, and having stuff to watch so we could remember the next day.
