this girl.

kelly briggs to be exact.

decided to be awesome and grow up before me. LAME. she went off to breed 'em young university two weeks ago and owes me a dollar if she pulls one of those "get married half way through freshman year things" so once upon a time, kelly and i didn't exactly get along very well until the beginning of may. same ward? yes. Same group of friends? yes. same personality? heck no. or that's what we thought anyways. we were civil with eachother, sure, but we didn't talk when it wasn't necessary. in fact, we sat next to eachother every morning in seminary for six months and i think we talked to eachother once and that was when we were fighting over those ridiculously awesome cups and bowls with the straws attached to them. you know, the kind that the average six year old uses? yeah. well long story short we never talked and didn't really like eachother that much--you know that thing people do where they make assumptions about people they don't really know? yeah. we were good at doing that. it all changed at nick hostetters suprise sweet sixteen, or a few hours before that i guess. something just happened and all of a sudden we were friends.
"do you need a blow dryer for your armpits kelly?"
"no...do you have one?"
ha.
we became fast friends after that and after a few ridiculously awesome conversations we realized that we actually had a lot more in common than we had previously assumed. the next three months were spent partying it up hard.

i just wish that we would have put the nonexistent behind us sooner, because now she's 1,300 miles away and i won't see her until thanksgiving and that's if i'm lucky. at least i have her in my life now though, and all of you down at BYU better go creep on her right about now...you think i'm kidding...i'm not.

i love you kelly.


forever and always,
