During my four and a half years in college, I developed friendships with a handful of people that were (and have remained) extremely close. Although it’s not always easy to find a group of people that function well as a tight knit group of friends, for whatever reason, our group of friends hit it off from the beginning, and just continued to grow closer over time.
While almost all of us ended up getting jobs in the same city after we graduated from college, one person in our group of friends took a job in the city of Indianapolis. Although she is far away from us, we haven’t let that impact her position within our group of friends. We all talk to her on a regular basis, and she means just as much to us now as she did during our time in college.
Because we all found out that we were going to have some time off of work, we decided to surprise our friend by taking a trip up to Indianapolis. She had no idea that we were coming, so she was absolutely speechless when she opened her front door and we were all standing there in front of her.
