A Chill Coffee House

We have a wonderful friend here at the Convent this semester whom many of us would describe as “chill.” She hails from a cool California school, and despite originally being from Cleveland (shmeveland?) seems like she could surf at the drop of a hat. Her name is Danielle (Westmont, ’12), and in recognition of her birthday we decided to throw her a super chill coffee house.

In true coffee house fashion, the night included food, hot drinks, music, poetry, artwork, and even comic impersonations (Ben, Messiah ’13).

As we found seats on couches and around cozy tables, with puppy chow, compliments of Kayla (Biola ’12), and mugs of chai made by Tyler, (SLC), some took the opportunity to admire artwork by Perry (Messiah ’13), Adam (Messiah ’13), Jess (SLC) and Allie L. (Program Admin).

We were all blown away by Allie’s (Eastern ’10), epic poem which made mention of everyone by name, and songs written specially for Danielle by Kendra (Biola ’12), and Perry and Adam. Josh (Eastern ’11) played a beautiful guitar tune for us that left everyone wishing for more.

After eating some delectable chocolate cake specially made by Lisa (Resident Kiwi Extraordinaire), we left feeling full of sweets, and glad to have the opportunity to live with and love Danielle this semester.
