By Carine Nadel Sometimes life hands you a wonderful gift. Going back to an era that you treasure is one. My college years are yellow with time and age, but I remember them as being the best of my teens (I was an eager beaver and went from 16-20). Without a doubt I had a blast. Now dont get me wrong. I was pretty much a square. After all, I was younger than all but one classmate (theres always one) and just because its my nature, I didnt drink, smoke, take drugs or sleep with anyone. I really was (and am) a goody-two-shoes. This was the mid-70s. I mention this mainly because I had three girlfriends who were pretty much the same. I was a broadcast communications major with a dance minor. Two were dance majors and one joined us later as a marketing student. She didnt dance, except to exercise, but we all got along well. They wound up being my bridesmaids. After my marriage, we just somehow didnt see each other. We lost complete track until about two years ago. One day I was sitting at the computer and thought hmmm, I wonder. A few days later, one girlfriend, still stunned, wrote back! This rejuvenation of friendships has happened to me several times thanks to the internet. We started e-mailing back and forth several times a month. Then last week-my husband and I met her for dinner! We had purchased season tickets to the theatre where she just happens to work as the assistant to the director. This dinner was truly a wonderful gift. Believe it or not-we look pretty much the same. All three of us havent put on weight, we sound the same, and we knew who we were without a single bit of double takes to be sure. We sat down and pulled out some pictures to update each other on what our remaining family members look like now (weve both had some losses in a quarter of a century). Then we talked and talked and talked. My husband even had fun. My girlfriend said shes still in contact with the other two women and caught me up with their lives. She says they try to get together for birthday lunches. Ones married and has three adopted children. The other two have always led single and very full lives. Oh and me, married with two grown children. Somehow about to become a grandma. Deciding this a complete success and a lot of fun-we are going to make these pre-theatre dinners a must. In fact, shes going to make a very un-birthday time call to our other bridesmaids and we going to try and make this into a real reunion! Carine isn't one for technology, but loves the fact that she has reconnected with so many good friends.
