So, I need you all to do me a favor.
I need you to think of a time that I did something for you/said something to you that was nice/unexpected. And then I need you to write that something in my comments box.
It's just something I need to see right now. So if you have the time.

My friend...that's a difficult thing for you ask of me...there have been so many times, where should i begin?
But I do remember one time in particular. It was back during freshman year, and I was feeling pretty low because I was so overwork with all of my usual classes, and my EMT-B class on top of it. I told you that I was feeling burned out and that I was thinking of droping the EMT class even though it was something I enjoyed. You talked me out of it, reminding me of how much I enjoyed it and the reasons why I was taking it...not only thinking of the present (difficult though it was) but also thinking of my long term goal to become a physician. Well, with your encouragement I stuck the class out and managed succeed in everything else in addition to getting my EMT cert. Looking back, I cannot over state how much I have learned from being an EMT and how much stronger it has made my application to medical school. And really, I have you to thank for it, because were it not for your friendship and encouragement then I absolutely would have droped it and not be where I am today. Thanks!
You offered my your flip-flops when I had a blister, even though I'm about four sizes bigger than you, and it was very sweet. Small moment, but it stuck.
I don't really know where to begin. Having had the chance to live with you for the past two years was certainly a blessing in my life. I think some of my favorite times was just us having good late night convos, or sitting at our computers singing harmonies along to whatever was playing on my itunes, or that really funny time when my mouse was working your computer, getting to watch you in carousel, the list could continue. I don't think I'll ever forget however, that you drove me through a deathly snow storm and all the way to boston, stayed with me in boston and got up at ridiculous hours of the morning so I could go to my NETC audition. Your support has meant so much to me. I honestly don't think anyone else would have done that for me. I also remember one convo we had in my car when you were visiting me and you said that you thought I was just as good as all the other people at school, which at the time I really needed to hear. It doesn't seem like it's a big comment, but it meant so much to me. Your support and generosity are a testament to the wonderful person you are. I feel privileged to call you my friend.
