Day 341: Portrait Three

This is Lor, ...at least that's what she'd like you to think. Her real name is Laurion, and I've always been partial to that name rather than her nickname, although my spell checker never seems to like it at all. We first met way back in Sixth grade when we were in the same homeroom, Mrs. Stanley's. We were pretty much enemies back in the day, and for some reason we had a vendetta but that all settled out and we've been friends for about 5 years now... I probably had the most fun so far shooting (I mean that in a nice, photographic way, I swear) Laurion lor because although she'd never give herself credit, she's a very photogenic person and we have a lot of fun hanging out. I think I'm going to try to recant my earliest definitive memory of some of these friends just for the heck of it, so here goes. For lor my first and foremost old memory of her was in 6th grade English. Mrs. Striker had us line up from tallest to shortest, and although I was pretty much across the room back then, I can still see Mrs. Striker coming to the last few girls in the row (It was 6th grade, back then all the girls were the tall ones. You remember that don't you?) and she just couldn't pronounce lor's name for the life of her. She must have said Lauren like 3 times before Laurion finally got her to get it right. Good times!
