Lunch Trio 11/8-11/12

Of all the people I could have lunch with, there are three people I would enjoy it with the most. One of those people would have to be my Grandpa Whelchel. He died when I was about ten or eleven, and I moved out of Colorado when I was seven. So I wasn’t really able to get to know him too well.  From what I knew, he was an artist and very kind. Just to be able to hug him one more time would be enough for me. I fear that the memories I have of him have grown fuzzy. If I could only have lunch with one person, it would definitely be him.
The send person I would be delighted to have lunch with would most likely be an old friend of mine named Travis. He was a very good friend of mine back in the day when I was about fourteen going on fifteen. He had to be about nineteen and was really a big brother to me. He would joke around with me and give me advice about boys and such. He was always smiling and he always seemed to have a bounce in his step. Then I just stopped hearing from him, I lost all communication with him until about two months later. One of the people who were really close to him posted something on MySpace. It said that something happened to make him shut off all contact to the outside world. He just shut down and didn’t let anyone into the house and you wouldn’t set a foot outside at all. Soon after he got extremely depressed and eventually decided to end himself. I never got the chance to say goodbye. I just wish I could have lunch with him, back with the old Travis I once knew.
The final person I would probably want to have lunch with is Billie Joe Armstrong. He’s in a band called Green Day. He has been my idol since I was in fifth grade. Not only is he gorgeous, but he makes really inspire music. MY favorite album of all time would have to be “Nimrod”. They inspire me to be better, better at being myself and better at expressing myself. I probably talk a lot about his music but I think it would be an honor or a privilege to get to know that real Billie Joe. Perhaps if this really did happen I would get a wicked sweet autograph from him also.
