One of the few people that means the absolute world to me, and one that I love more than anything in the world. You are leaving me in three days and I honestly don't know how I am going to manage without you. So I have decided to tell our story, the story of how we became such amazing best friends. It is a friendship unlike any other that I will never forget. I remember seeing Andrews for the first time at a show at Boom Va, oh the good ol Boom Va Days. I don't believe that he saw me, but I saw him. We met for the first time one night when I decided to meet up with our mutual friend Connor. They were shooting off fireworks and we ended up getting run down by the cops, it was hilarious. The cops stole all of our fireworks but we managed to hide a couple. We all jumped in my car and as we were driving down the street we lit them out the window and took off before the cop could find us again, what a good night.
After that night, we became friends on Myspace and we talked here and there..always saying we need to hang out but it didn't necessarily happen. We would ALWAYS randomly run into eachother at different places and we would be so excited to see eachother. I moved to California for awhile, and when I came back I went to Denny's with all of our North Ogden Crew. We ran into eachother again finally and we both had the biggest smiles on our faces. We gave eachother a hug and I swear neither of us wanted to let go. That is when our friendship REALLY began. We talked everyday, we hung out so much and would chill and watch really great movies . I'm not quite sure how our friendship set fire, but it did. I'm so happy that it did.
We became so close, we tell eachother mostly every little thing. One of our favorite things to do is go on adventures and explore new things. I remember going up to Oaklawn park countless times, going to the indian schools, the ddo, roaming Brigham City, going up by the North Ogden Divide looking out over the city, etc etc... I wish I could go over every little adventure we have had but we both know that that would take ages. I will never forget any moment we have spent together. We also never really had to even go out to have some fun. We could just sit and talk forever, sit in on a saturday night and just watch a movie.. which would still be the time of our lives. There is one day that I do want to mention, which is probably the best day that I have ever had in my life. It was so perfect.
One day right after work we decide to meet up. We want to go down to the south towne mall all the way in Sandy to do some shopping. Us shopping together, is not good. We knew we had style and we had money, the money does not last long when we go shopping haha. What an amazing shopping experience that was. We then decide we want to go to downtown Salt Lake just to explore the city. Andrews and I were starving and I thought of Noodles & Company. We shared their Wisconsin Mac & Cheese, and it was to die for. We were both in heaven and couldn't believe how perfect everything was. Even the coke was perfect. So we decide to continue our exploring, we walked around the LDS conference center where they have a little waterfall running down the building and it was so refreshing. Then Andrews says, "Lets go to a park, I want to just walk around but I want there to be trees and I want to hear a river runnin in the background, sorta like the waterfall." I thought, I have no idea how i'm going to find a park like that in Salt Lake but we can try. I then remembered there was a park by Capitol Hill, but I couldn't remember what it was like. The park was exactly what we had both wanted it to be, it was absolutely amazing. There were trees, there was a river running, there were unique little monuments, and a path leading up into the woods. We walked around in the park, and walked up the trails.. we sat and talked for hours. We finally got tired and decided to drive home, and we reminisced about how amazing everything had been. My very perfect night, with my very favorite person. I'll never forget it.
I love how comfortable I am with Andrews and how I can completely act myself around him. I'm the biggest nerd. Every single one of our friends, even family members, have thought that there has always been something going on with us or thought there has been at least some history...Nope. It has always been strictly friendship with us. We laugh because people think that a boy and a girl simply can not be just friends, well.. we are living proof. We act as if we could be a couple because we love eachother and care about eachother so much, but we are just so comfortable.. it's never been more. I love when me and him can just cuddle and watch movies, and I absolutely love when we fall asleep. It's comforting. We have a blast at concerts, getting up on stage with The Game TWICE was amazing. We saw T.I. together which was sooo sick. Seeing Big Boi with Andrews last week was another really great moment. Arms around eachother, dancing and singing along to the music. Another thing that I love, we never ever fight. Except that one time.....But I don't even want to remember that moment. Our friendship is stronger because we got through that moment, never again. Best friends until the day we die, cheesy I know...but it's the truth. I'll always love the kid.
He is moving away to St. Louis with his family on Monday because his father has a job out there. I will simply be a mess when he is gone, I will miss him so much. But this is definitely not goodbye, never. I will be visiting frequently.
So there it is, a small amount about an amazing friendship that has shaped my life so much and brought me so much joy. I just had to tell about my best friend because he is so important to me and he always will be. Nobody can come between us. I love us, and I love our friendship.
