Kelly Swope and I first became friends in high school over the common trial of being deemed an alto in chorus. It was actually at an awesome New Years Eve Party that Kelly threw three years ago tonight that Ming and I met. Kel is the kind of friend who always feels close in spirit even when she is continents away. I love her fun-loving spirit, her willingness for spontaneous adventures, and her passionate loyalty to those she loves. I am so thankful for the love she has shown to us. Hannah VanSyckel and I have been true kindred spirits since the first
moment we met in our high school chemistry class. From our common love of books like Anne of Green Gables, to our chats over a good cup of tea, Hannah is a source of consistent friendships, laughter, and wise counsel. I strive to imitate her peaceful nature and amazing dance moves!
