"Sue: You're the best friend IN THE WHOLE PLANET!" -Richard

...how he signed my yearbook. Part of an inside joke from Orchestra Tour.

Wow. I really shouldn't be allowed near my scrapbook while I'm feeling all lovey towards my friends, hahahaha. It leads to random tears and longing for high school days.

With the guys all coming home soon (Brady next month, Zack in July, etc) I've been wishing things would be exactly like they were in high school. I loved my group of friends in high school! I mostly hung out with Nikki (Sky Princess), Sarah (Pomegranate Angel), Reba (Rock Rebel), Amanda (GrnEyed Devil), Zack, and Jason. (I know you are curious--yes, I had a nickname as well. I am Cinnamon Goddess.)

I really always have had great friends. I guess I'm lucky, but I have never known anything different.

-----

Sarah: known ALL HER LIFE. She is amazing. Sarah and I have been best friends since we could talk--her in witty yet eloquent sentences with huge words. Some things never change. She is my Crazy Buddy.
The Honeyman: known for 9 years. Introduced me to people as his wife since 9th grade. This November 4th will be our 7th anniversary. He is also a Crazy Buddy.
Danielle: known for 1 month. After meeting her at IHOP a month ago I walked away thinking, "I totally want to be her friend." Hilarious! Darling! A blast! etc.
Ellie: known for 1 month. Hilarious! Darling! A blast! etc. She's great.
AJ: known for 1 month. Hilarious! Darling! A blast! etc. I love his random accents! Oh my, everyone's Chinese!!! Hahahaha.
Aaron: known for 1 month. Hilarious! Darling! A blast! etc. He's a Crazy Buddy as well!
Kelly: known for 1 month. Hilarious! Darling! A blast! etc. She is so dang sweet.
Debbie: known for 1 month. Hilarious! Darling! A blast! etc. Oh my heavens, I never stop laughing when I'm around Debbie; she's great.
(I hate to lump everyone together like that but it is SO TRUE! You all crack me up thoroughly and I enjoy being with each and every blasted one of you. ...so call me more often!)
Reba: known for 9 years. Had orchestra together for 4 years until we started becoming actual friends. Reba is unintentionally hilarious.
Mandy: known for 1 year. She lived down the hall from me in our apartment building last summer. Mandy is quite possibly just as giggly as me. (How can that be?) She is darling and a lot of fun to be with.
Amanda: known for 5 years. We became friends one random winter day when she called me and invited me to go Christmas shopping with her. (We'd only known eachother from hanging out in my debate coachs classroom) Manda is great! She is a blast to be with.
Zack: known for 5 years. We had Summer Drivers Ed together but didn't really get to know each other until Nikki's 16th birthday party a month or two later. Zacky is totally random and fun. He is willing to go shopping with me, haha. He was kind of like my Pre-Honeyman best guy friend. Hahaha. He is on his mission in Florida right now, but gets home in about 8 weeks.
Annie: known for 10 years. Was my absolute siamese twin in 9th grade. We did every single thing together. She's very softspoken. She is now married and lives in SLC. ...I need her new cell number.
Brady: known for 7 years. Wow. The Human Vacuum ("What the...? He bent the card!!!"), hahaha. Brady was my first date. He thinks I have great style and that we should be shopping partners, haha. Brady gets home from his mission to California in around 4 weeks. Brady is a blast.
Troy: known for 8 years. We started hanging out together in 8th grade. We soon did *everything* together (would that make him my Pre-Zack Pre-Honeyman best guy friend? ...I always seem to have one of those.) I can kick Troy's trash in pool. He is getting married in July. That's so weird to me still.
Sarah: known for 5 years. She is very sweet and funny. Sarah got married one year out of high school. She now lives in Salt Lake (and is coming to my birthday party this summer, it will be the first time I've seen her since her wedding)
Andrea: known for 6 years. We became friends because her older sister had a crush on my bro, Clarke. Hahaha. Drea is a great person, she is really really fun to be with. She is now married and has a darling little son, Dylan.
Kris: known for 7 years. Kris is ONE DAY younger than me. And we were born in the very same hospital, too! I totally love Kris, he is great. He is sweet and hilarious. He's on his mission right now and gets back late this year, I believe.
Brittany: known for 10 years. We became friends one random day on the bus home from 6th grade. She lived down the street from me. We became coherts in crime at church, haha. She just got married two weeks ago. I miss Brit. At her reception the mother of a friend of ours said to me, "There goes your partner." So true. Although she was head cheerleader and student council (and I was debate, haha...wow, I'm lame) we did everything together.
Amy: known for 16 years. She was my only friend in Kindergarten. We remained steady friends for all of school. We were infamous for our vicious fights. (One included me refusing to watch Evita, her putting it in anyway, me kicking her out of my house, then her spraying me with my sink faucet.) She just lives in Provo, but I havent talked to her since last fall.
Tiera: known for 10 years. She is so incredibly funny. Tiera is very quiet around people but when you get her alone, DANG, she is hilarious. She and I took an institute class together and I had to cover laughter with coughing so often. (Ti- You get the RMFL: "R.M. For LIFE!")
Emily: known for 15 years. She is actually my 5th cousin (as in our great great great great grandparents are brother and sister.) Em is darling. She was my very first sleepover. We were in 1st grade, I was soooo excited.
Emily: known for 11 years. She was my best friend in my 5th grade class. Emily and I sang a duet of "I've Got Rythm" for our 5th Grade Talent Show. (I snuck lipstick out of the house for that performance because my mother told me I couldn't wear it.) Em is darling.
Ray: known for 4 years. I once dyed Ray's hair at 1 a.m. in my basement. But I had never used a cap before, so I ended up pulling too many strands through the holes on the sides, resulting in a checkerboard pattern around his head. Hahaha. Ray's a stud.
Nicky: known for 6 years. I got to know Nicky because she is Andrea's best friend. Nicky is so incredibly hilarious, but in a very subtle way. She is really really sweet.
Jason: known for 6 years. Jason scares the crap out of me in the very best way possible. He is so incredibly intelligent I feel stupid just knowing him. Jason's really sweet and is a great friend. He is on his mission to ummm...Hungary (i think) and will be back in about a year.
Jessi: known for 12 years. Jessi and I became great friends in 4th grade when we were both the only people in our grade over 5'8" (No matter how much I grew Jess has always been a half inch taller than me.) We were dubbed The Twin Towers. Jessi is really sweet, she is fun to be around.
Kelly: known for 9 years. Kelly is HILARIOUS and she shares my love of random movies like Bill & Ted (both) Two years ago Kelly and I did everything together for about four or five months. I haven't talked to her since Halloween. That's sad, I love Kelly, she's great!
Robb: known for 9 years. Robby, Robby, Robby! He is HYSTERICAL. Robb and I sat by eachother in our 7th grade English class (The Honeyman was in that class with us.) Thats when we became friends. Robby is now incredibly gay and lives in Salt Lake and is still as hilarious as ever.
Jeremy: known for 8 years. I adore Jeremy! He is totally rad. Jeremy is so incredibly sweet, too. After my big birthday party a few years ago there was a complete mess outside. Everyone else left and Jeremy stayed over an hour and just helped me clean up. He and I sat by eachother in our Recreation class our senior year and beamed notes back and forth to each other on our Palm Pilots, hahaha.
Suzy: known for 7 years. Suzy's full name is Suzannah, which is pretty freaking rad. She and I were stand partners in orchestra in 9th grade. We caused all kinds of havoc, mwa ha ha. Then Suzy and I were always with eachother during the Orchestra Tour to California my junior year. She and I shared a hotel bed, haha. Suzy, Richard, Tom, and I were together CONSTANTLY in Cali.
Richard: known for 15 years. (Wow, that's a LONG time.) He and I had classes together for years! Richard and I hung out together every single moment of the Orchestra Tour. I believe he is on his mission right now (to France, maybe?) and will be returning pretty dang soon. Richard is HILARIOUS and our senses of humor are really alike. ("He is the best teacher...in the whole planet!")
Scott: known for 5 years. He's not really a friend in that I could call him up, but he was my very best friend in debate. He was President and I was his Vice-President. Incredibly cocky. HILARIOUS. There was a long lasting inside joke between us about the prefix "Mc" (Scott- "It's a McScott" Sue- "Ah, you mean McLame?" Scott- "McNaked!" Sue- "McGag Me." Scott- "You mean McHottness!") I always tried to convince Scottie of his adoration of my voluptuous lips. He is now a very gay male model living in SLC. ...he still owes me $5.
Christian: known for 8 years. Was my very first online friend. Ended up going on a few dates with him. Very very cool guy. I hear he is engaged to be married this summer.
Tashina: I've never met Tashina but she is radder than heck. She is also taller than me. How cool is that?!


...Oh my heavens, I am forgetting so many people. But I'm not aware of any of them coming around here, but if they happen to stumble upon it: I totally love you as well! But it is 3:30 a.m. I can't think clearly enough to write more!
