FRIENDCAM: Inseparable

Three times the pleasure, (from left) Racquel Maitland, Karrel Johnson and Laurie-Ann Henry.

These beauties hung out at a friend's house in Kingston on Heroes Day. Who says three's a crowd?

1. Why are you ladies here tonight?

Karrel Johnson (KJ): Chilling, or you can just say hanging out with friends.

Racquel Maitland (RM): Here to watch Karrel get tipsy and to have a good time laughing with each other.

Laurie-Ann Henry (LH): To watch over each other and have fun for the holiday and chill with other friends.

2. How did you all become friends and how close are you three?

KJ: We have been friends from a tender age. It began at May Pen Infant School, continued at May Pen Primary School, then Glenmuir High School. Thereafter, we all pursued tertiary education at the University of Technology. Coincidentally, we are all living in the same house. We continued to remain friends despite our many adversities as adolescents.

LH: We have now tended to become inseparable, as we met in infant school, then followed to primary and now to university. What are the odds of that?

3. I am listing three words. Tell me which word describes who, and why? Three words are: i) crazy, ii) leader and iii) friendly.

(Without even thinking Karrel had the answer to these three words at the tip of her tongue.)

KJ: Crazy - me, of course. Leader - Laurie-Ann and friendly - Racquel.

4. Who is first to say, 'Maybe we should think twice before doing ... ?'

RM: Although Karrel is the crazy one, she is also a logical thinker.

5. When one of you has juicy details about something or someone, which of the other two do you end up communicating with, or is a conference call made?

LH: Well, normally, first-hand information is shared between Karrel and I, then a conference call is made to fill Racquel in.
