Kirsten has been my best friend for the longest. We've been friends since 4th grade when we were both scrawny, four-eyed, buck-toothed little kids. Some of my best memories of Kirsten are playing her Harry Potterr board game, dressing up like superfans, and going to state basketball. We've had countless late night talks in my parents theater room. This is embarrassing, but she taught me everything I know about boys. I even remember her giving me advice on how to go about holding a boys hand. She gave me lots advice on relationships when I was dating my first boyfriend. We have we have common enemies and some common allies. She is a crazy runner and she has inspired me to start running. I remember the first time I really tried running for fun she told me that it was all mind over matter.that advice is what has kept me running. I love Kirsten.

Next up is Jade. Jade and I were roommates my freshman year. But I never appreciated her until we moved to different apartments. Last summer we were inseparable. Some of the best Jade stories are when she crawled around our apartment to take and send to Janel a picture of Janel and the boy she liked. Once she went for a very late night walk, and got to the church before she realized it might not have been a very good idea. And I once saw her rip an entire phone book in half. One of my favorite things about Jade is how she loves everybody, especially boys. It's always kinda fun to keep track which boys she loves at the moment. She also gave me an appreciation for Hello Kitty because she is Asian. She makes the best cupcakes in the whole entire world. Because cupcakes are the happiest food, you could say that Jade spreads happiness. Everything about Jade is great and lovable.
Last in line is Elysha. Elysha was my FHE sister, then my roommate. When I think of Elysha, I think of laying around my apartment waiting for her to get home so we could get the party started. Or making Amy play the piano for us while we wrote in our journals together. We would always fight because I'm a picky eater and wouldn't eat her food or otterpops. One of My best memories of Elysha is of staying up really late watching the lightening storm and talking. She introduced me to the Logan city library. I still think of her every time I hear the song Friday. One of her special talents that I love so much was her ability to know and love everyone. I swear she could always find someone that she knew or someone who knew someone she knew. Now she is serving a mission in Taiwan and I absolutely love writing and receiving her letters. I would definitely say that I am very much so who I am today because of Elysha. I love her to the moon and back.
Even though Elysha is in Taiwan, Jade is leaving for Korea, and Kirsten is getting married, they are my best friends and I consider myself so incredibly lucky to be friends with all of them. I don't know what I would do without all of them. I love my best friends so much!!!
