This is my friend "Mebbay" whom I feel really thankful for. I've known this girl for less than a year, but it's crazy how comfortable I already am with her. She's one of the few people I've met in college who has seen behind my guarded walls. I know it sounds dramatic, but it's the truth. I don't let people in easily, especially since it's so easy to walk out. My life isn't perfect, but don't get me wrong, I'm not ashamed. I simply choose to not share my life story with every single person I meet. ~~Mebbay gets me though and she doesn't care about my past. She accepts me for who I am today and looks forward for my future. I know I have her support and I know I can always count on her to listen to me -- even when I'm whining or being plain ridiculous. I don't throw "I love yous" often because I want them to really mean something. With this girl, however, I can honestly say those words with conviction. She has my back and I have hers. I'm really looking forward to the memories we'll make as our college years and the rest of our lives pass us by. Mebbay's a keeper, and though we don't talk or see each other everyday, it's so nice to know that our friendship remains alive within our hearts.
Love you girlie! <3

P.S. We take LOTS of pics when we hang out. And we sing loudly to songs on Youtube like we're Beyonce! :)
