My Partner in Crime.

This is my best friend Rachael.  Now this girl and I have some h.i.s.t.o.r.y. :)  Rach and I have literally been through thick and thin; up's and down's; had good times and worse times.  Since we have SO much history together, I will try to make this as short and sweet. 

I met Rach sophomore year in high school.  We didn't get off on the right foot and actually didn't like each other in the beginning.  Low and behold we get paired together as lab partners in Chemistry junior year.  After a few months of getting to know each other, I was headed to ABQ to spend Fourth of July with friends.  I randomly asked her if she wanted to go on a road trip with me and she said "yes!"  This is how our friendship unfolded.  Since we became close friends fast there was a lot of jealousy amongst her other friends that weren't exactly my friends (yes, sounds exactly like high school drama huh?)  Needless to say, we hung out a lot throughout high school, went on a few road trips together and finally soon after we graduated we were each others first roommates in our own first apartment!  Of course we had a blast!  We continued to make many memories, go through many boy dilemmas, and personally growth issues.  We always stuck by one another.  We always communicated our feelings (good and bad).  We never stopped supporting each other.  We always had fun.  She's like another sister to me.  

After our year of living with each other, she had made a decision to move out of state and go to University of Nevada Las Vegas.  This was a huge step for her and as much as I hated her decision I knew it was the right thing for her.  To this day we do not talk every day and we are lucky if we talk once a month.  But every single time we do, its like we just pick up from where we left off.  Its like we never miss a beat.  I have been to Vegas numerous times to visit her life there and she has gotten to meet the man of my dreams a few times as well.  I can't wait for her to come to ABQ and see the life I have made here.  

"Rach, you are the best best friend I could ever ask for.  Thank you for being you.  No matter how much time passes between our convo's always know that I am always thinking about you!  Thanks for all of our crazy memories! I don't know what I'd do if you weren't still in my life.  love you bffe!"
