just take your time it's only life

these are the 10 people that have made the biggest impact on my life. without them i would be lost.

1. you are one of the strongest people i know. you have been through so much in your life and i have watched you grow into someone who is so strong. you are constantly watching over me making sure i am doing alright. you have always been there for me when i have needed you, whether it was just to chat, to vent or to cry on your shoulder. i know i can always count on you to be my solid ground when i feel like crumbling. you were the one who always pushed me to do better and for that i am thankful. i love you and will always.

2. i don't know how i lived without you in my life. these past few years have been amazing and i am proud to say you are one of my bestest friends. :] i have loved our time together, even if sometimes i questioned how we ever became friends. we are two totally different people and i laugh at the fact that people think its weird that you and i are friends. we are both so messed up within our lives that we just fit together and that makes me happy. :] from the first night we met on valentine's day i knew i had met a true friend. from then on we have become more than friends, more like sisters that God forgot to put together. we have been through a lot together over these past 3 years, both good and bad, but we have overcome them all. i know you will always be there for me and you know that i will always be there for you. i love you my experimental other half... hehe ;] sorry just had to say it.

3. even though we aren't directly related i still think of you as one of my mom's. you were my mom away from my mom, if that makes sense. you helped me discover my passion, with a few bumps in the road of course. i knew i could always count on you for advise. you were a different point of view and i liked that. you watched me grow into a stronger person. our lunch talks were always a lot of fun. you kept my secrets safe until it was time to let them go and i thank you for that. even though i don't email you as often as i would like, i still think about you all the time. thank you for a wonderful 4 years.

4. we grew up together. our friendship started in 7th grade and from them on you were my best friend. college happened and for a year we lost touch. we were off doing our own things and finding ourselves in this great big world, but somehow we found each other again and i am grateful we did. i missed talking to you. now its everyday and i love it. you are always there to listen to me vent, which sometimes i feel like i do a lot and i don't mean to, but you are a good listener and no matter what you say you give good advise. if i'm having a bad day you somehow know and in someway you always make me feel better. the smallest thing from you means the world to me. i love you and i love that you are back in my life.

5. i don't know if you will ever know this or not, but i look up to you more than you know. summers with you were always fun, especially the summer i lived with you. it was my home away from home for a while. you always made me feel welcome, even if sometimes i felt like an outsider. you are the most craftiest person i know. you know how to turn things others would see as junk into a masterpiece. one day i hope to do the same. i love you for who you are and am grateful to call you family.

6. my weird hawaiian. boo! :] our 4 hour talk made it all. that year was crazy. so much drama and so much to talk about. from then on we were inseparable. even though we aren't as close as we used to be, you still changed me in ways i wouldn't have though imaginable. you opened up my eyes to new things, things i wouldn't have thought twice to look at. you are such a strong person and i look up to you for that. you are more beautiful than you think you are. this past year alone you have grown into such a strong woman. watching you go through life and change has made me really think about my life. i love you for what you have accomplished. follow your hopes and dreams and one day you will change the world, i know it. i love you my weird hawaiian.

7. i know there are more than one of you, but if you think about it you are all the same. you all may not have done the same things in the same way, but it all amounted to the same thing. being with all of you has made me grow as a person and made me realized that i don't have to rely on someone else to make me happy. true that having someone makes a person happy, but that's not what it amounts too. i wouldn't take back any of the time with any of you because that time with any of you was wonderful. i just want to thank you for helping me realize what is important in life.

8. fridays with you are what i look forward to during the week, that and one tree hill of course. haha :] but you understand the importance of that. you are one of my best friends. we haven't known each other very long, but we just clicked and its been great ever since. i remember the august night when i met you, i was already in my pajama's and you came back with my roommate and i didn't realize you were a student here and from them on our friendship grew. you are always the one i can go to when i need to talk, about anything. you know almost everything about me, or at least the most someone can know and i know that you understand me for who i am. i love our weekends when we end up together the whole time. all of our trips to washington, v.s., home (mine of course, since yours is far away), and the many more we will have. i love you!

9. living with you this past summer was amazing. we are the perfect roommates, minus the fact that you are getting married in february!! :] i am so excited for that, of course not more than you. i love you more than you will know. growing up we weren't very close, but over these past few years away at college has brought us close together. you have helped me to see the bigger picture and not just the little world we are in. i am proud to say you are my best friend and i love you. there is so much more both of us has to experience and i am happy to have you on my side. you're amazing!

10. probably the strongest and smartest man i know. i love you more than you will ever know. you are my hero and i look up to you. you are the one person i know who understands the choices that i make, you may not agree with all of them, but i know that if i tell you something you will understand why i do what i do or say what i say. you always stood up for me when no one else would. that shows me how much you care. you are always making sure i am happy, even when you are far away. i know i don't call as much as i should, but that doesn't mean i love you any less. you are constantly in my mind. i think about you always. i love you unconditionally and always will.

all of you have made me who i am today and without any of you i don't know where i would be today. i can honestly say you have all changed me for the better. you are all amazing, don't ever forget that.
