Absolutely the most loyal friend on earth.  One who always calls, keeps in touch in her busy life, and never hesitates to invite you along.  One of two graduates in the house that still wants to chill, and I appreciate that.  More generous than you can imagine, I am so glad Nikki picked me as a buddy.

NIKKI GAUTHIER

My other graduated friend, Ruth and I have shared some close connections: Rosarito, discussions on what it's like to be smart and/or young, and adventures involving places called Wahoo's.  She is one of my ultimate idols and I only hope to grow up like her, with that amount of respect for myself and others.  Yay Roof.

RUTH VINT

ZEEK EBNER

My one and only bro.  Da man who taught me how to read, which really is the reason I am anywhere I am today.  He's always been there for me in some way or another, whether kicking my ass to make me stronger or threatening to beat the guys that make me cry.  You're the best brother, dude.  I mean it.

My longest running best bud, she's been there from the crazy days of middle school, through the Hanson obsession and countless pool parties, to the great far-away friend she is today.  As true a friend as you can imagine, I feel like I can always count on my Tien, future chef and always source of a good laugh.

MELISSA MCCARTHY

The only person who can truly understand the workings of Taylor Street Pizza, we had some of the greatest summers on record together, working nights and swimming away days.  She keeps me on my toes and updates me on the hometown, and I love her for it.

Without a doubt, the funniest man alive.  This guy has never ceased to put a smile on my face and make me laugh to tears on various occasions.  I will always remember the glory days of the BSQ CreW and the way you used to rip on Matt.  Love ya, Kennif, and I hope what you're doing is making you happy.

MATT SLOWEN

My  best guy friend since Sophomore year in high school, I hope he knows just how much I love him and always will.  Since we're getting married, I don't really feel like I have to say much more, but he is the sweetest, most sincere guy in the world and I hope he never forgets about me.

She helped me through a very transitional freshman year of high school and we probably have more inside jokes and notes than any other two friends in the history of the world.  Always my snowboarding buddy although she kicks more ass than me, I love Kat and her naturally crazy ways.
