Lauren,
I cannot believe we've been friends for 5 years already. 5 years of talking everyday, multiple times a day....well, except when we broke up, ha....& still continue to stand each other. I still remember the day we met. Well, the 2 times we met. The first time, you tried to steal my boo & I wasn't trying to have no white girl stealing my man! (LMAO!!!) & the second time, I just thought you were just some crazy chick following me & the guys around cause we laughed at a girl in Bluebird together. We have many, many memories in these 5 years. Some which we don't remember, some which are still coming back to us as the years pass, some we just won't ever forget & a couple that we didn't have together but, have talked about so much, it feels like we were there the whole time for each other.
You are my best friend & I love you so much. You are a strong, dependable person who I feel is misunderstood by many. You're crazy, yes but, as you say, we all join crazy town eventually. In the last 5 years I've gotten to know your experiences from the past 10 years of your life well. Learning your experiences, I've grown to understand why you are the way you are & today, through all your trials & tribulations, you remain a beautiful person. There are many that wouldn't be as positive about life as you are after experiencing such things. You believe you are strong, you believe that your worth is amazing, you know that no matter how hard life gets, you can make it through the storm and that, Lauren, is what I admire most about you.
You helped me survive my last year of college. The year in which so much change happened for myself. My most favorite experience that you helped me through was my first heartbreak. You probably yelled at him more then I did! It could be because you were a extra bitter Bofonda at the time but, till this day, it cracks me up! No, wait, I cannot forget the summer of sitting on the porch everyday with cans of miller lite & the radio! That was one of the best summers EVER! HA!
I always wish the best for you. I always want what's best for you. I appreciate you being in my life & being there for me. I LOVE YOU just as you do Tracy & Jessica and, I always will! Can't wait until we are old in our rocking chairs SK-ing our other roommates, sneaking whiskey, & being loud!
Love always,
Gerri
