wrapped around the world (twice!)

Six years ago I and my new roommate, Lauren, moved into my apartment on campus at Reformed Theological Seminary with some upperclassmen, Jen and Mary. Mary's real name was Wan Jun Li. She was an incredibly sweet, albeit a little kooky, Chinese student. She was always cooking strange things (except for her weakness for totino's frozen pizza and box brownies). Since the two and half years I was there many things changed...but one thing stayed the same.





Yes. That's right. Plastic wrap. JUMBO size. I'm pretty certain that Mary (Wan Jun Li) bought it. When I left that apartment, I took that with me. It has seen me through my first apartment (off campus), and my two years of marriage. I told David of the legend of this plastic wrap and he suggested that we place bets on when this plastic wrap finally runs out. It has been good to us--after all, we haven't had to buy plastic wrap in 6 years...going on 7. Feel free to place your bets.

  1. That is amazing! I remember that stuff on top of the fridge- I can't believe you still have it. It is so funny to see it again. I bet you will at least make it to your son's 2nd birthday! Any more and I want to hear about it! What else did you take- don't tell me you still have your Lord of the Rings Gigantic stand-up poster from Barnes and Noble and you're using it to decorate your baby's nursery with.

    Love,

    Lauren

    P.S. I like your blog!
