Warrior Forever
Since graduating high school about two years ago now and having my friends scattered all across the state for school and work I have realized just how important hang out time with the gang is. One way we've kept our group close is by sticking to our traditional hang outs that we've had since middle school and aside from being a ton of fun it's something myself and my friends can look forward when we miss our time together.
There are several traditions that we continue to this day that keep us close and help us retain our sanity while dealing with school and work. We get together for every UFC PPV/event, it sucks to watch these alone or not watch at all so every time there's an event we all meet back up in our home town and go to a sports bar called McCoveys and watch the event with good food and good friends.
Another that I practice with my friends from my old job at the downtown movie theatre is meet up for Wingstop ever thursday night and just spend hours talking over amazingly delish food and when I'm having a bad week I can always look forward to that and it gets me through.
I used to think that having a kind of scheduled hang out would be kinda lame and weird, but now that I have these hangouts it really puts me in a great mood when I know that I've always got those get togethers to brighten my day and keep my friends and I from drifting apart. When you spend time with your friends that often, not only is it fun but you come up with new things to talk about and even learn new things about them even after years of friendship.
Do you have any events/activities that you regularly get together with friends for?
Would you say they help strengthen your friendships or effect you in any other way perhaps?
