Here's to the best time of my life...

Here's to three girls who changed my life entirely, but in only good ways.

Here's to all the people I worked with; I don't have picture memories of all of them, but they're all still really important in my mind. Sure, we've had our share of disagreements but every single one of them has taught me something significant about one or all of the parties involved (including myself). These people, who don't even know exactly where they're going in life, will stay with me forever.

Hey dudes, remember the times?

-How we all had our own routines that ended up freakishly similar after we'd lived together for only like two weeks
-The times that we went to bed 'early'...right Steph? 2 in the morning is early...right?
-PSYCHO KIT ATTACKS!!!
-The one day that we watched like 10 episodes of "24"...in. one. day. I don't even like that show!
-Last night, when we watched 9 episodes of Numbers.
-"Ahh! There's a cat under the sofa!!"
-The, what, three (?) 'House Meetings' that actually happened
-That thing in the water that made Steph's hair turn black and mine turn red...
-The steamrolling incident at 2am
-"If you make him claw me, I will claw you and then throw him at you!"
-The terms of endearement that float around here. Ex: Dumbdumb, You're a tool, jerk! and the list goes on...
-September 24th, the night Meghan fell out of bed and Alexis had an asthma attack and we had to take both of them into the hospital at 5.45 am. What a day that was.
-The second time I ate sushi (or whatever it was); right Cort and Jenni? I was dang scared of that it, because the first time I'd eaten sushi since my whole gr 7 social class got food poisoning from making it as a class project.
-Girl Bonding with Luke. Need I say more? So much fun.
-That one time that Aileen was helping Steph wash out her hair...I mean, tried to drown Steph in the bathtub...
-Two words. Ong Bak.
-Our Christmas Classics marathon that lasted a week.
-Random trips into Sundre for Kinder Surprises.
-The Kinder Surprise toys that litter the house. And I mean that in the nicest way possible, guys...I like building the toys and eating the chocolate, but the toys are just annoying to have around if they're mine.
-Yes.
-Jesus?
-More than two.
-Don't worry, no tiny cow is making a tiny home of your carton...
-Comfort.
-Sign me up!
-Ooh...Pick me, pick me!
-The hair-dye incident with Aileen. Oh wait; that was today!
-Scott, Philip, Heidi, Olga, Freida, Bruce and the new Hood Fan will always be my friends.
-Arrogant Worm listening marathons.

You guys, everyone at Evergreen, will stay in my memories forever. I'm pretty sure that I've forgotten something in here because my mind's just trying to cope with the suddeness of all this. I've struggled with making decisions lately, because I knew that they would bring me closer to leaving camp. It's never something I anticipated, but it's something that I now think will be good for me in the long run.

So, here's to the best time of my life...my time at Evergreen! Thank you guys. Thank you for making this time of my life the best and for making the most difficult times easier. Thank you for being there when the last thing I wanted was to be around people, and thank you for giving me my space when I needed it. Thank you for just being all-around amazing people!
