The Evolution of Friends

As I was going through all of the pictures I've been tagged in on facebook, I realized that I have had a lot of friends. Some of these friends I've been friends with since elementary, and some I've just barely met in college. Some friends I don't talk to anymore, and some I talk to everyday. It amazes me how much has changed in my short life and how much change is yet to come. So here is the evolution of friends.

Elementary Friends

These are the friends that I met in elementary school. I don't hang out with any of them, but I will always remember them. I will always remember Kyle Ottman hitting me in the face with the door in 5th grade. I will always remember obsessing over Scott Heinrich. I will always remember when me and Jessica Milton walked home from school everyday. I never see them, and rarely talk to them, but they will always be a part of my life.

Middle School Friends

These are the friends who I was inseparable with in middle school. Christina, Ariel, and Whitney. We ALWAYS had sleepovers and ate junk food together. We were all in the same ward and did everything together. I don't see these girls all the time, but I will never forget the awesome memories we made together. I still talk to them, and I love them all so much.

Church Friends

These are the friends who I met at church, but have become some of my best friends. They are like my sisters. We are all at different points in our lives, but we are still friends. We will always be there for each other. I don't know what I would do without these friends.

College Friends

It's been hard for me living at home going to school for several reasons. One of the biggest reasons is, I haven't been able to meet a whole lot of people that I haven't grown up with because I don't have roommates. But I've met some pretty amazing people in college that I hope to be friends with forever. These friends include Ashley Garrett, Andrea Marticorena, and Jess Segeberg. Meeting these friends has made college a little bit easier for me in the social aspect of college.

High School/College Friends

These are my friends that I met in high school, but have continued to stay friends with in college. Without these friends, I would go crazy. I have never met a group of people who can laugh as much as we do! We all have each others backs and love each other so much. We will all be in different places in our lives in a couple years, but we will always stay friends.

My Best Friends

This last set of friends are the most important people to me. They are my best friends. My family. These are the friends that I will always have. No matter what. Through thick and thin, we will always have each other. I love my family so much that words can't even explain it. Through all of my stages of friends, these friends have always stayed the same. I love them so and they have done so much for me.

I have so many pictures of friends that I wish I could put on here. But there is only so much room on a blog. I've missed a TON of friends, but I hope these friends know that I haven't forgotten about them, and I love them just as much as anyone on here.
