Once upon a juicebox...

So I have not yet edited the layout of this blog or even given a second thought to what exactly it would be about. However, new year, new blog... seems entirely appropriate to me.

I know we're all on the same page with this.

So, apple juice you ask? What exactly about this fruity concoction makes it worthy of a blog title? It seems only fitting that our very first entry explain this title and the history of your two faithful authors. Myself and miss Kim Le. And thats pronounced 'LAY' people, get it right.

I've known kim, or Kiem as we affectionately refer to her, since second grade. She had that little bowl haircut and I didn't know that spandex stirrup pants were not acceptable for every day wear. Needless to say we became fast friends. Kim and I spent many many afternoons playing barbie and teaching her (Kim not Barbie) how to not be afraid of my dog (who by the why is tiny and harmless). Then, one day in the cafeteria, we were eating lunch together like good little second graders do, when we decided to partake in a game of "lets fill our cheeks with apple juice and pretend to spit it at each other". What can i say, second graders are easily amused.

The game got quite intense and in a moment of spastic second grade excitement I ::gasp:: actually spit my apple juice on Kiem. Not just ON her, but directly onto her face. Apple juice in her eyeballs, dripping down her nose, and ruining her makeup....had she been wearing makeup. Now, we are in the cafeteria and it is mighty crowded, so immediately my first thought is 'Oh no, Kim, are you ok?'

HA, just kidding.

My first thought was actually. 'Shiet I am going to get in so much trouble when she tells on me'. Cause dont forget, thats what little kids do. They tell. So i turned to my apple juice soaked friend and said

"If you don't tell on me I'll be your best friend forever"

Apparently she liked that deal. Because not only did she not tell, but I did not get in trouble....and here we are. Blogging together. Laughing together. Sharing together. And you know what? Apple juice love really does conquer all. And yeah, I had to ask Kim how to spell conquer. Deal with it.
