1. You are like a sister to me.

2. I am glad that you are one of those people who's car I feel safe in, even when I don't get to drive. [And even though sometimes I have to tell you you tried to get me killed!XD]

3. You are still, and always will be, one of my favorite models.

4. Thank you for indulging my need to take photos and for helping me learn new things while doing it.

5. I am glad that I can be there for you when you need me.

6. And thank you for being there for me.

7. I miss you dearly when I don't get to see you.

8. I am glad that we got over our initial thoughts of one another when we met Freshman year, because it meant that we got to be friends and I am glad for that.

9. It makes me happy that we can sit for hours and just talk about everything and nothing, and sometimes just the same things that we always talk about.

10. One of my most favorite things is when we write. It entertains me like nothing else.

11. You are adorable.

12. And quite lovely at that.

13. I like that people underestimate you because you always show them that their wrong in the most humble of ways.

14. One day I know you will find the man of your dreams and I wish you the absolute best with him.

15. P.S. I think you will make a great mother.

16. I am glad that we like a lot of the same sorts of things but also have our different interests as well, it gives us something new to talk about. lol.

17. Sometimes I wish we could be back in high school so I could see you every day again.

18. I think that it is one of the most amusing things ever that you look like a different person in nearly all the photos of you.

19. You are a pro at face making. [I aspire to get to your level of awesome.]

20. I love to read your writing, even when its just ranting.

21. Thank you for looking out for me when I needed someone to keep an eye out.

22. Also, thanks for always being ready with a hug. [You give good hugs].

23. I really appreciate that you don't mind teaching me about your culture, some things may seem odd to me, but it is genuinely interesting.

24. You are amazing.

25. You have a great sense of family, [even if sometimes they don't treat you as well as you treat them.]

26. I love that you love video games. It makes life that much more interesting.

27. You have a contagious laugh.

28. I think its great that you don't seem self concious when you dress up for no reason other then "just cause" and go out, I hope that skill will rub off on me a little.

29. I love you.

30. Its hard to write this, because like you said, you probably know all the things I will tell you. I hope that means I tell you them often enough.

7. Thank you for letting me 'play lizards' with you in 6th grade. <3

//Because

Over this past weekend something horrible happend in the life of one of my friends and it got me thinking a lot. I will not go into too much detail, but basically she lost a friend forever, because he took his own life. This person was very close to her and my mind started turning. Everyone knows that you regret not saying things to people before they pass away, that you regret not telling them how much you love them or how much they have inspired you. That you couldn't find the words. 

This past weekend I have missed all of my friends and family more then I can possibly have imagined because I do not know what I would do without them. My family is my support. My friends are my inspiration. And the knowledge that they are all well keeps me going through the day.

I know that this might be a little corny and kind of silly, but for me and for my friends I went through and pulled out a bunch of photos of us through the years and made them into little slideshows. Watching them makes me smile.

----------------------------

There are so many things that are left unsaid, or that are not said enough and I thought that I would say a few words to those friends whom have given so much to me in my life thus far. In the next few days I write out those words. Again... I know its kind of corny but I watched a friend lose someone really close to her and I just couldn't imagine the pain. I couldn't imagine not telling someone how much I love them and how much they mean to me.
