1. We met in September 2007 at the first CLS (Christian Legal Society) party I attended with Cassie, which was actually a belated surprise birthday party for Malori!! (We’ve realized since then that we were both at the most broken point in our lives right around that time. And interestingly, our friendship and John Eldredge’s books were helpful for both of us in healing.) It’s awesome to look back and see how God moves and directs things when we are so unaware of their importance at the time!
2. We have similar tastes in movies, music, books, plays, restaurants, TV shows, and people ...we knew we would be good friends when I was the only one who aced the movie trivia at her Oscar Party. lol
3. She is HILARIOUS, sarcastic, quick-witted, and clever... she always makes me laugh!
4. An eloquent speaker... she speaks with confidence and intelligence, and she's well-versed in such a wide variety of subjects, which I have always found impressive!
5. Easygoing and fun to hang out with… a friendship where I feel relaxed and comfortable.
6. One of few people I feel I can totally be myself around and say anything to.
7. She would have been my friend in high school. ;-)
8. For the most part, we like and dislike the same "sweet-spirited" people, and find the same random stuff funny!
9. She also used to play the flute in high school! (Although she was quite a bit more passionate and talented there than I was.)
10. (2010 update) I loved learning about her "Driver" personality and how well our opposite personalities complement each other and work together! I appreciate knowing I can always count on her for an honest opinion; she is decisive and blunt and is not fake with people.
11. One of the strongest women I know ...her self-discipline, fiery confidence, and strength inspire me to improve on those things!
12. An awesome, fun roommate for me... I so enjoy our PJ-party chats over oreos and milk. :)
13. She's a great vacation buddy and planner (Vegas, NYC, and Big Cedar), and it's impressive to me that she managed to have a good attitude even when she was deathly ill in NYC!
14. She bakes tasty chocolate cakes every once in a while just for fun, which makes ordinary days feel more special and celebratory! =)
15. For obvious reasons, she has the younger sibling tendencies and I have the older …so that's another reason we understand each other well and make a good pair!
16. She strengthens and encourages me spiritually, and vice versa... and we can talk to each other when we are doubting or questioning something, which is usually quite helpful.
17. Compassionate, supportive, loving, trustworthy, and generous in helping out her nephews and her close family and friends!
18. Taught me how to do my own French manicure nails, a cuter way to wear scarves, how to properly format my Resume, how to understand and appreciate tennis, and even how to make vegetables taste more appealing! lol
19. She puts up with my random quirks, kills bugs for me (YAY!), and humors me when I insist on taking cheesy pictures, which is always! =) But how cute are the Chipmunks!?
20. Sends me hilarious text messages that make me almost choke on my food when she is having a rough day, or when something crazy was happening at “The Shack!"
21. Well balanced -- works with ambition, excellence, diligence, and attention to detail... but is good at relaxing and taking it easy at home. =)
22. A good listener who makes me feel comfortable and safe saying what I need to say. I so appreciate that she listens well and remembers the little things we’ve talked about.
23. Stands up for herself and won't let others disrespect or mistreat her. Very feisty, and I love that quality!
24. She got two amazing job offers yesterday (the first day of class for her last semester of law school) -- super exciting, and she definitely deserves it that success!
25. My best friend... someone I believe will be part of my life from now on, then we'll still be friends in heaven, and that means more to me than I can put into words! ❤
