to my best friend and the light of my life, i cannot express how grateful i am for you. the moment i knew you’d always be in my life was the day you told me that you were coming to my signing when i committed to a college for soccer, even though that didn’t happen because i tore two ligaments in my ankle. the day you said that made me so happy because there was no one else who believed in me and my ability the way you did, the way you do. tell your last ex girlfriend thank you for me, because if it wasn’t for you two breaking up, we would have never gotten as close as we are now. i would never have gotten to listen to you drunkenly talk to me for hours on facetime until 5:15am when i had class at 9am the next day. we wouldn’t have texted all day every day and talked on the phone until 6am for those first few weeks, the weeks that rekindled our friendship and made it grow even stronger. whenever i was feeling homesick at college, you always managed to make me feel better and put a smile...
