Willford's Favorite Student

This will prove once and for all Katie that I am Willford’s favorite student.  She came all the way to NYC to visit me.  (If that last comment confused you, click here to see if you can find what I am referencing.)
Anyways, last Tuesday one of my favorite teachers of all times (my high school leadership teacher) was in NYC.  Willford, as she is fondly known, was taking a group of students on an East Coast College Tour along with a good friend of hers.  Her friend’s fiancé owns the company that organizes these college whirlwind trips where students see an unbelievable amount of schools in one week.

I joined her, along with 25 high schoolers for dinner at John’s Pizza off of Times Square.  If you had told me when I was a sophomore in high school that I would be having dinner with Willford in NYC six years later, I would never have believed you.  I guess that is just a testament to the amazing teacher and friend she is, even through my college years.
Fun with reflections and mirrors in Times Square
We had a great time catching up and exploring around Times Square.  We even found the perfect souvenir for her daughter at the Disney Store.  Thanks again for visiting me Willford!  Even if it wasn’t the sole purpose of your trip, we can still pretend it was. J
