Day 1

My Best Friend

I'm not going to lie. The term "best friend" kind of bugs me. I feel like so many people use it so loosely to describe pretty much everyone in their life. I have this one friend who pretty much states that EVERYONE is her best friend. Helloooooo. Best=better than the rest. They can't be the best if everyone else is comparable. However, I do believe people can have more than one "best" friend, because you, or at least I know I do, have friends that you consider best for certain reasons. But, I really don't think everyone can be your best friend. Silly people.

However, this best friend thing reminds me though of the first encounter I had with Forrest. I alluded to it in my last post, but I'll give a more in-depth story behind it. I had gone over to my buddy Kristian's house, who so kindly saved me from my misery of being by myself, alone, in my apartment. I had recently decided I was going to just ask random people to be my best friend, because you know, it worked in elementary school...why shouldn't it work now? So, new roommate of Kristian's came out of the room, and I enthusiastically asked if he wanted to be my best friend (it was on one of the days I chose to be super outgoing). I remember him just kind of looking at me, maybe, saying hi, and then walking away. It was sad, because I had already had my eye set on him (before I even met him. Kristian told me one of his roommates had a girlfriend, but the other had only a sister. I told Kristian "I'm going for the one with the sister", without even seeing him. I told Forrest this yesterday and he was like "So I was doomed before I even met you." Ha. ha. Ha.)

However, my theory that asking people to be your best friend works, has definitely fulfilled it. While I have friends that I would consider my "best" for certain reasons, Forrest is most definitely my very best friend in the whole entire world. He's definitely the best in so many ways, and I'm so grateful for what he means in my life. I've posted plenty of pictures of him though, as well as written lots about im, so I'll just post two pictures and little stories of my other two best friends.

Cortney! I have known her for, well, ever. I don't remember not knowing her; I think we've been friends since we were two. We were in the same school class from Preschool up until 6th grade. She's really tall. I remember being so upset when we were little and she surpassed me in height (Because, yes, I was taller than her in kindergarten. But, she kept growing, and I pretty much stayed the same. Weirdly enough, we have the same shoe size). We've gone to several EFY's together, lived together, gone on lots of crazy and exciting adventures, and just known each other forever. I love Cortney to death and she is defintiely a BFF of mine. I could go on about all the weird things we used to do, like play lion king in my backyard, have lemonade stands, or make up stories to each other. SHe's basically the best, and I've loved living with her this whole past year. It's weird not to be anymore.

Senior year of highschool; stage makeup for Fiddler on the Roof. Yay!

Megan! Well, you can read about how we came to be friends here. Megan is pretty much thebomb.com. Pretty much whenever I want someone to talk to, she's there and willing. We've been friends since about 8th grade. I was super bummed when she decided not to come out here to Provo and live this semester, but she's being super cool and doing some internship in Denver. She's kind of goofy and says weird/awkward things sometimes, but that's pretty much why I love her. She goes to school up at fake BYU (Just kidding . . . Kind of) in freezing cold Rexburg, but she's come to visit me a few times over the past year (because I'm lame and don't want to go up there. She's a better friend than me). One of my favorite memories of Megan was when we were in 9th grade, we would always say the pledge of allegiance very . . . enthusiastically, together in my second hour choir class. Or EFY one year. That was intense. She's great, and I love her to pieces. If I had a fave five, she'd be on it. She also designed the wedding dress I will wear one day, and the dresses my bridesmaid will wear.....bahahah.

And that is the end of today's "blog every day". yay!
