Fo Lo.
Well, since it appears at least to me that Laura Nutter, my fabulous former roommate, is my most excited blog reader, I'd like to dedicate this to telling her how wonderful i think she is. As of yesterday, September 9th, she is now in Spain til December 19th. How I am excited for December 19th!!!!! Here my friends is first and foremost, our story. It all started sophomore year at this bible study in Lake Highlands, a place neither of us went to school at, we were just both invited. Worship, Intercession in the Word or (WIW). We met a few times and I just really liked her a lot. Nothing more than that and I remembered where she went to high school because I had kamp friends who went there. Time went on and fastforward to senior year. My high school's power had been cut off by some poor guy who cut the wrong wire during construction so we had the whole day off!!!! I don't really know why we decided this, but we wanted to go raid this high school and hang with our friends there for lunch. I knew Laura went there but thought very little about it, just hoping maybe i'd see her. Of course she remembered me and we were both very excited to see each other. Later on Senior year, we played each other in softball and literally sat in the stands chatting til everyone in the stands (like 20 ppl) had gone home and her mom pulled her away. We were gonna hang but we lost each other's numbers:) Freshmen year at A&M: In April, I go to Mosher to watch LOTR and who calls my friend Caitlin but Laura Nutter, who is visiting and thinking about TRANSFERRING here!!! So I see her and I'm really excited about her coming... Second semester sophomore year was really when we bonded...RML (random muffin love) sneaking muffins into the WCL to Grant Usry and making cookies too for RCL...even when she was taking 18 hours, she'd never say no. Then the housing thing came up and she said, hey! share a room with me! As we started looking at paint colors for our room, she asked if she could paint in green. why not? well, i walked in when she had painted to walls, and to be frank, it was a little too tennis ball green for me. But ya know, it's paint, who cares?! But lo wouldn't settle for it and made me pick another color. I opted for a lavender color and she said that's great! However, then our friend Caitlin told me, as long as you didn't pick purple you'll be fine. Laura HATES purple. So, we decided to make our room green and purple. I am purple walls, she's green walls. Thus began two glorious years of living with her and the fabulous Tori Walters in F3. Favorite memories include: late night room conversations, cuddling, he talking to me from her bed while napping, her telling me everything i did while i was sleeping b/c she couldn't (still creepy:), random dance parties, her laugh (it's awesome), movie nights, gumby's 50 cent pizza rolls and gilmore girls, sharing a closet, her love for others, our discussions about guys who are annoying when they ask you why you don't have a boyfriend and you know they are currently single:), her kindness, going to the Mavs game with my parents, when Molly her dog came and lived with us, her WONDERFUL patience with my messiness, when she'd cut my hair, Tori and I's fantasy of duct taping her to the chair this semester and only undoing it when we want to play with her, her excitement for the Lord and passion to go anywhere He wants her, etc. Basically Laura Nutter, you are a blessing to me and I miss you a whole lot. Oh yes, and I know this probably is slightly strange for you, deal with it:) I love you! Feel free to all others, to leave comments as to why you love laura nutter or why you think you would if you knew her.:)
