Hi Everyone,
I just wanted to write down exactly how I feel about my best friend, Jaimee. We have had a lot of trouble getting in touch with each other the past few weeks and I know she checks the site, so, cross your fingers that she sees this.
My best friend, Jaimee, is the most amazing person I know. She has seen me through every human emotion possible and is still friends with me.

She has been my close friend longer than anyone. She has been there for me more than anyone. She is my best friend.
I met Jaimee in high school. We were both freshman and I had just moved to a new town. I was the picture of innocence. Jaimee, on the other hand, did all these exciting things like sneak out, drink, talk to older guys. Our conversations consisted of my listening intently, hanging on her every word. And her, listening to me complain...about the constant responsibility of my, at the time, 2 year old, sister, or about my parents divorce, or my mom's new 70 year old boyfriend.
We each had our other friends. The ones we shared classes with. Even ones we spent more time with. But we always managed to find each other around 10 or 11 and talk late into the night.
Time passed and we moved on to different friends but we still remained friends. No matter who jilted us or who came and went in our lives we will still there for each other. We were always on each other's side. Two of the very few people who have ALWAYS been true to each other.
I went off to school far away and still stayed friends with Jaimee. She stayed home and went to a local specialty school. Things happened and I found may way back to the east coast. Since I have come back I feel like the only person I can depend on here is her.
I moved from 15 minutes away from her to an hour and 15 minutes away from her. If it wasnt hard enough to see her before my parents found out that we rolled together and said they did not want me hanging out with her. My parents said that I had to choose between her and my sister. I have managed to be able to stay friends with Jaimee without my parents finding out. It just makes things a lot harder when I can't use their car to go and see her and have to take the $80 round-trip train.
But all of this is really meaningless. The only thing that matters is that Jaimee has been the one constant in my life. Through my parents being together and splitting up and being together about 10 times...through my first love...and loss....through my brother taking off to South America....through my being at school/being at home/being at school/being in Philly...through it all the one thing that I could always depend on was and always will be Jaimee. I hope she knows how much she means to me and how much I love her!! She is the picture of what a best friend should be. I just hope that everyone in the world is lucky enough to have a friend like Jaimee. I hope that I am half the friend to her that she is to me!
Jaimee, I love ya and can't wait to see you next weekend! I miss ya, girl and don't know what I would do without you. I am always here for you. No matter where I am going, no matter where I have been...you will ALWAYS be my best friend!!

Have fun and be careful!
