BFFs- Best Friends Forever

This is a post dedicated to my bestie, Jiff.

Before she dyed her hair, cut it short, and got contacts.

I've heard it said that people come into our lives for a reason, bringing something we must learn. And we are lead to those who help us most to grow if we let them and we help them in return.

Who would have thought that the crazy hippie girl I was so worried about living with freshman year would turn out to be my best friend?

For three years we have been laughing, crying, eating, chatting, playing, and making our way through the craziness of college life. We've supported each other through boyfriends, heartbreaks, life decisions, finals, and roomie drama. We've dragged each other to parties, dances, dates, midnight premieres, and Arizona. We slowly started melding into each other. I started saying "y'all". She started eating more "exotic" foods. We both have watched The Phantom of the Opera too many times.

Basically, it has been one heck of a good time.

And now, the next chapter is beginning. Jiff goes into the MTC Wednesday to serve an 18-month mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. She is going to the Sao Paulo East Mission. And I couldn't be more excited for her. I always wanted her to have an international experience and now she's getting one. A big one. And she is going to be a great missionary.

But I'll miss her. That's for sure. BYU will be a different place without her.

So ciao meu amiga!! God be with you until we meet again!!
