Sometimes life is so bitter and yet so sweet.

So I was just thinking today about all that I have been through for the last few years. I started school up here at BYU-I back in 2006 and I will still be here for a while. But along the way I have made some wonderful friends and even married one. :) But this last semester one of my really good friends graduated and is leaving. I admit that I have not been the best friend for the last couple of years, but, if it weren't for her, my first year of school would have been so hard. Yes Amelia Worthington, I mean you. The end of this semester is harder than the others have been, not because I love any particular friend or past roommate less, I have just loved her longer.


Amy was one of my first roommates and we bonded really quickly. We once had a conversation about how we felt really alone on campus because we didn't know that many people. We worried that we would never get to the point where we would know 3 or 4 people on campus. Well, we both got there and I attribute it to our friendship. We have grown in many ways through our school years and I am sad to think that it has ended. I know it ended a while ago, getting married does that to you. I haven't been a good friend since then. It's much easier to pretend like it won't end, but when graduation hits, so does the realization that people move on. And more than when some people move on, having Amy move on makes it feel like the end of an Era... Anyways, before I ramble more I just wanted to reminisce on some of the good times we have had. :)


Well, dear Amy, I love you more than a zillion gallons of milk. I know that we aren't saying goodbye permanently, and I hope we will be good friends forever. :) I am so proud of all that you have accomplished and I am so glad that I have known you. Thanks for being a great friend over the years over the last few years!
