Reaching For Stars

The Friends.

My friends are my life.  They're all as creative and as crazy as I am.
Enjoy!

Serafina.

My best friend and possible the most... *ahem*... crazy one of us.  That might be an understatement, but it doesn't make her any less dear to me!  We've had the most times together.  Surprisingly, I'm having a hard time thinking of what to say here.  There's a lot I could put, but it's all inside jokes that no one would understand.  Like, if I put "Oh- That's the squirrels.  They're throwing nuts on my roof.", no one would quite get the hilarity of it but us.  And that's what being best friends is about.  Gosh, really, what to put?  HOw about this- Good times have passed and good times will come!
"Be creative!", girl.  Remember Nigel, your neighbor, and those "Big red balls!!"

Mandy.

The quiet one.  Well, she's quiet at first glance, but she's totally different (and awesome) when you get to know her.  She's someone to talk to and have around just for the sake of having around.  We have the best times in second period band.  She thinks I'm smart...  I'll just let you take from that what you will.  She's so nice and innocent.  Well, mostly innocent.  I mean, she did go to States with us.  But there are things she'll just never get- like the instrument storage closet :).
Haha- "Hay Manday!!"

Tricia.

The tough one- the tom boy.  She's hilarious and outgoing- her moments (like the theory that running in the middle of the road in front of cars is ok because "they'll stop") have us laughing constantly.  She's off-the-wall and zany, and whenever she's around expect good times.  She can skate around groups like no one's business- she's friends with you, she's friends with them, she's friends with everyone.  While her toughness can sometimes come off brutal, she's still pretty cool.
Stay "Gangsta," girl!!

Alysha.

The, well, nondescript one of us.  She fits right in, even though she's the most balanced out.  At first glance (and even when you get to know her) you can see who she is.  She's got the most amazing fashion sense- every day when I come into school and I see her, I think, "Oo!  Cute outfit!!"  Haha- she's actually sitting beside me as I type this on my laptop.  But every thing I'm saying is true- she won't even give me any ideas of what to type!!  Now, she says "Okay, I'm thinking!  Type something about my personality."  Well, alright.  She's funny- she's always got a good comeback up her sleeve (especially when it comes to stuff with Mandy and Welchko) and she's nice- she'll always hang with you for a good time.
:)

Tina.

My CSI friend.  If there's anything I need to know about CSI, I go to Tina.  Actually, if there's anything I need to know about anything, I ask Tina.  She's the most informed, the most clued-in, and some of the most fun!  Discussions at lunch were always either started or extremely helped along by her.  And she's my savior in algebra this year.  Not that she helps me with my homework all the time- not to make her sound inconsiderate or rude, I just don't really ask.  What I mean by savior is that she saves me from the kid who site behind me.  Good grief, the things that kid does to me.  It's always a relieving moment when Tina walks into algebra.
Even though he's gone, never forget Warrick's pants, Tina.  Never.

Lindsey.

Haha- Lindsey- Good times.  What can I say?  Lindsey's the most random.  You can never guess what's going on in her head.  Just the other night, we were talking on AIM about our english homework and she said "What's that disease where someone has extreme sensivity to the sun?"  I just laughed.  Classic Lindsey.  I was talking to her last night, actually.  You know what about?  Cheese.  They burnt my Cheeze-Its- I figured she'd want to know.  We ended up talking for a half hour about cheese.  Randomness is her life.  And that makes it all the more interesting. 

Z and Sam the Centaur shall live forever- and I still have those stories :)

Shylah.

Another one of my very very close friends.  Shylah is always there for me, regardless of the situation or the conditions- she's always had my back.  I don't think- scratch that- I know there's no one in the world more trustworthy than Shylah.  She's completely fiduciary.  I don't know how I survive algebra 2 without her!

Sarah.

You know, you'd think she'd be the quiet one.  You look at her, you get to know her, yeah- she's quiet and shy.  But then you really get to know her.  And oh my Lord- Sarah has her moments.  She made States very interesting.  She makes everything interesting.  Sure, there are dull moments in life, but Sarah makes them few and far apart!
You stomp those weasels, Sarah.  Happy June 7!

Katie.

Oh gosh.  Katie, while brunette, is the blondest person I know.  She's so funny.  If you ever tell her something funny or private, don't expect her to keep quiet.  I know this from experience- she'll yell it to the world.  Don't even try to be inconspicuous with her.  Even with her flaws, though, she's a good time!
And hey, Katie, btw, thanks- "Mr. Kokus, which bus are you riding?"
